Notes
*Make your own oat flour for this recipe by placing 2 ⅓ cups whole rolled oats in a blender and blending until a coarse flour forms.
**The pepper helps to activate the turmeric.
You can purchase pre-made oat flour at many grocery stores and natural food markets or online. If you are gluten-free be sure to buy oats that are specifically labeled gluten-free.
These muffins can also be made into a quick bread. Simply add to a greased loaf pan and cook for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Invite the little ones into the kitchen to help with the prep. They can stir the batter, and help spoon it into the muffin tins!These muffins freeze well. Just cool completely, then store in a tightly sealing zip-top bag for up to 3 months.
