Notes
VEGAN: Sub eggs with 2 flax eggs (2 tbsp ground flax mixed with 1/3 cup of water and set aside to gel for 5 minutes). They will be a bit flatter and may took longer to cook.
These muffins are just barely sweet, making them great for kids too! For sweeter muffins, add 1/4 cup of maple syrup.
1/4 tsp nutmeg is also delish here!
There is no substitute for the flours here and the recipe and I can't vouch for the recipe turning out with alternative flours.
