We found these muffins to be beautifully moist, deliciously spiced, and popular for one and all. Hemp seeds are, I believe, the highest protein seed and also high in Omega 3's. Did you know that hemp seeds are considered a complete protein, and have similar amounts of protein to beef and lamb?? So feed these to whoever says you don't get enough protein on a vegan diet.
Apple-Spice Hemp Muffins
Makes 12 Large Muffins
1.5 C whole wheat or spelt flour
1 C oat flour
2/3-3/4 C hemp seeds (don't try to substitute this)
1.5-2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp cardamom (or nutmeg, but the cardamom is really nice...)
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 C applesauce
3/4 C plain or vanilla almond milk, unsweetened
1/2 C maple syrup
1.5 tsp vanilla
1/3 C raisins
1. Preheat oven to 350. Line a muffin pan with liners, or lightly grease.
2. In a large bowl, combine the flours, hemp seeds, cinnamon, sea salt, and cardamom, and sift in the baking powder and baking soda. Stir until well combined.
3. In a medium bowl, combine applesauce, milk, maple syrup, vanilla, and raisins, and mix together.
Gently fold the wet mixture into the dry mixture and stir until just combined (do not overmix).
4. Spoon the mixture into the cupcake liners (they will be quite full). Bake for 21-23 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
