1/4cupavocado oil
1cupcanned pumpkin puree
1largeegg
1tspcinnamon
1tspvanilla extract
*Optional: raw turbinado cane sugar for sprinkling on top before baking
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Place 12 cupcake liners in a muffin pan.
Whisk all ingredients together in a large mixing bowl until smooth.
Divide the batter evenly between the muffin cups.
Sprinkle the tops with a little raw turbinado sugar, if desired.
Bake for 16 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Notes
Don't overmix! Once the wet ingredients are thoroughly combined with the flapjack mix, pour the batter into the muffin pan, and get it in the oven.
For fluffy muffins with a moist and tender crumb, don't let the batter sit once it's mixed. Instead, immediately pour it into your muffin pan, and get the pan into the oven asap.
Add 1/2 cup of chocolate chips or chopped walnuts to the batter for a delicious variation.
