Orange Blueberry Chia Muffins

Print Recipe

Ingredients

  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
  • ¼ cup chia seeds
  • 2 tablespoons Limoneira navel orange juice
  • 1 tablespoon Limoneira navel orange zest
  • ¾ cup rolled oats
  • ¾ cup canned chickpeas drained & rinsed
  • ¼ cup cashew butter
  • ½ cup ripe banana
  • ¾ cup non-dairy milk
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Begin by blending blueberries, orange juice and zest. You will want a nice smooth puree with no blueberry pieces remaining.
  • Then add the chia seeds, stir and let sit for around 10 minutes. The chia seeds will absorb the water from the blueberries and create a jam-like consistency.
  • Next, add rolled oats to a food processor and pulse until evenly ground.
  • Finally, add the remaining ingredients and pulse until a batter is formed.
  • Then, add the batter to a muffin lined tin or nonstick silicone pan. I suggest making these mini muffins with about 1 tablespoon of batter each.
  • Add a dollop of jam to the top of each muffin and bake for 20-25 minutes.
  • Allow muffins to set and cool for 10 minutes and enjoy!
