Directions

Preheat the Oven

1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (360°F). Grease a muffin tin with avocado oil or line it with muffin liners.

Fill the Muffin Tin

6. 6. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about three-quarters full.

Bake

7. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Cool and Serve

8. Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Serving Suggestions

These muffins are perfect on their own but can be enjoyed with a spread of butter or a drizzle of honey for extra sweetness. Pair them with a cup of tea or coffee for a delightful snack.

Cooking Tips

• Substitutions: You can substitute the butter with coconut oil or the nuts with seeds for a different flavor profile.
• Add-ins: Consider adding raisins or dried cranberries for an additional burst of sweetness.
