Instructions
Let's Begin!
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- In a small bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour, oats, almond flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and spices until all combined. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, add the olive oil and brown sugar. Mix together until combined. To this mixture, add the unsweetened almond milk, orange juice, vanilla extract, apple sauce, and orange zest. Mix together until combined.
- Slowly add the dry ingredients to your wet ingredients and mix just until combined, making sure not to overmix.
- To a greased muffin tin, fill the tins 2/3 of the way full with the muffin batter. Bake for 20-22 minutes or until a toothpick comes clean. Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Remove and let cool on a rack.
Orange Spice Glaze
- In a small bowl, combine the powdered sugar, orange juice, water, and spices. Mix until smooth and no lumps of powdered sugar remain. If the mixture is too thin, add more sugar. If it's too thick, add more water.
- Pour the glaze over them when you're ready to eat. Garnish with additional fresh orange zest if desired.
- Serve and enjoy with family and friends!
