Ingredients

    1 1/2 cups organic oat flour or soy flour. (I used 1 cup of oat flower and 1/2 cup of soy flour in my recipe
    3/4 cup pure Stevia
    2 teaspoons baking soda
    1 teaspoon baking soda
    1/3 cup Coconut Oil
    1 Large egg
    1 serving of unsweetened Applesauce (Store brand is fine)
    1/2 cup light butter ( I used I can't believe it's not butter)
    3/4 cup Light Orange Juice 50% less Calories
    1/2 Cup of Orange Zest
    2 T of Lime Zest
    1/2 cup Almond or Soy Milk ( I used Silk Vanilla Almond Milk)
    1 or so tsp of Pure Vanilla Extract (based on your own taste)

Tips

After I had let taken the muffins out, I added a few drops of extra Orange Juice on top of each Muffin. It seemed to keep the muffins moist and I covered the muffins with foil to keep the moisture in until they were ready to be served.


Directions

Heat oven to 400 degrees - Spray 12 standard size muffin cups with Pam. If you have a empty cup put 1 to 2 teaspoons of water in it.
Whisk flour, Stevia, Baking Power, Baking Soda, Orange and Lime Zest in a large bowl. Whisk at least 10 time to make sure the Baking Powder and Baking Soda have been evenly dispensed.
NEXT: In another bowl, combine Coconut Oil, egg, milk and Vanilla Extract, apple sauce, Orange Juice and light butter until combined.
ADD Mixture to the bowl with the flour and sugare then use a fork to combine. Do not over mix (The muffing batter will be quite thick)
Bake muffins for 20 minutes or untill top is no longer wet and a toothpick inserted into middle of a muffin comes out without crumbs.
Let cool and then serve
