Vegan & Gluten-Free Morning Glory Muffins

There is perhaps no better way to start a Sunday than with some yummy baked goods, a warm cup of coffee, and good company. Today, I made these delicious vegan & gluten-free morning glory muffins to share with my family! They are made with oat flour- which is simply just ground oats, and some other pantry ingredients that I gathered together. This recipe is also refined-sugar free and sweetened using maple syrup. 

You can include your favorite additions to this recipe like nuts, seeds, chocolate chips, and maybe even some dried fruit! I like eating these muffins with a little bit of peanut butter on them, but they can also be enjoyed straight from oven.
