Ingredients

2 flax eggs
¼ cup coconut oil, melted
⅓ cup mashed ripe banana
⅛ cup maple syrup (or agave)
½ cup white sugar
½ teaspoon sea salt
1 ½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ cup plant-based milk (I used almond milk)
1 ½ cup grated carrot (packed)
⅔ cup rolled oats
½ cup almond meal, or ground almonds
1 cup all-purpose flour
½ cup raisins

Instructions

Prepare flax eggs in a large mixing bowl and preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Line a muffin tin with paper cups or lightly grease them.
To the prepared flax eggs, add coconut oil, mashed banana, maple syrup, sugar, salt, and whisk to combine.
Next add the baking powder, cinnamon, and almond milk. Stir well.
Add grated carrots and stir.
Add oats, almond meal, flour, and raisins. Stir well.
Divide the batter evenly among 12 muffin tins, filling them all the way up to the top.
Bake for 32-36 minutes, or until deep golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and let them set in the pan for 15 minutes. Then flip on their sides still in the pan to let cool completely.
If you try to unwrap them too quickly, they have a tendency to stick to the wrappers.
Once cooled, store in a covered container or bag at room temp to keep fresh. Freeze after that to keep fresh.
