Mini Matcha Muffins

For as long as I can remember, I have been obsessed with anything matcha! But who isn’t, right?! These mini matcha muffins make the perfect snack but also work as a great breakfast for those mornings when you’re in a rush to get out the door! Check out the recipe below:

What you’ll need:

1. 1/4 cup coconut oil
2. 2/3 cup almond milk
3. 1 tbsp ground up flax
4. 1 tsp vanilla
5. 1/3 cup maple syrup or honey
6. 1 3/4 cup oat flour
7. 2 tsps baking powder
8. pinch of salt
9. 1 tbsp matcha
10. 1 tsp spirulina (optional)

How to make it:

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees;
2. Mix oat flour (if you don’t have oat flour on hand, grind up oats in a food processor to make your own), baking powder and salt and then add in matcha and spirulina powder (the spirulina is optional – I just added it in for the pop of color and extra nutritional benefits);
3. Mix almond milk, flax seeds and vanilla in another bowl;
4. Melt coconut oil, mix with maple syrup  and add to bowl containing almond milk, flax seeds and vanilla;
5. Slowly add in the dry ingredients;
6. Spoon batter into an oiled muffin pan (I used coconut oil, but you can also line the muffin pan with muffin cups instead);
7. Bake for approximately 20 minutes (before the muffins start browning).
8. Remove from oven, let cool for 10 mins and enjoy!
