Cashew cardamom muffins

Cashew butter lovers beware – these muffins are delicious and totally addictive.

Yield 12 muffins
Time 30 minutes
Tools
  • muffin pan
  • 2 bowls
  • whisk
Ingredients
  • ½ c plus 2 T non-dairy milk
  • ¼ c orange juice
  • 1 t orange zest
  • 2 t ground flaxseeds
  • 1/3 vegetable oil
  • 1/3 c plus 1 T sugar
  • 1/3 c brown sugar, packed
  • 1/3 c smooth cashew butter
  • 1 c plus 2 T flour
  • ¾ t baking powder
  • ½ t baking soda
  • ½ t salt
  • 1 t cardamom
  • ¼ t cinnamon
Directions Preheat oven to 350. Lightly oil the muffin pan or drop in paper liners.

Combine milk, orange juice, orange zest, and flaxseeds and beat until frothy. Add oil, both sugars, and cashew butter and beat another minute.

In another bowl, combine remaining ingredients.

Gradually add dry ingredients to wet and beat for about 2 minutes. Fill muffin cups about 2/3 full and bake for 22-24 minutes. Let cool for about 10 minutes and then enjoy warm.

Notes I think this recipe makes a terrific breakfast muffin, but it’s actually just a frosting-less version of a recipe for Cashew cardamom cupcakes.
