Citrus-Scented Seeded Muffins
- 1 1/2 cups whole wheat pastry flour
- 1/2 cup semolina flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/3 cup avocado oil
- 3 tablespoons brown rice syrup
- 1/2 cup erythritol (see Note, below)
- Grated zest of 1 lemon
- Grated zest of 1 orange
- 1/2 cup combined lemon and orange juice
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2/3-1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 teaspoon chia seeds
- 2 teaspoons chopped sunflower seeds
- 2 teaspoons chopped pumpkin seeds
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly oil a 24-cup mini muffin pan.
- Whisk together flours, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Combine oil, rice syrup and erythritol in a small saucepan and cook, stirring, until the granules dissolve, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat and whisk in zests, juices and vanilla. Mix into dry ingredients and slowly mix in almond milk until a smooth batter forms. Fold in seeds until incorporated through the batter. Divide batter evenly among muffin cups, filling cups two-thirds full.
- Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the tops of the muffins spring back to the touch. Cool for 5 minutes before carefully removing the muffins from the cups. Transfer to a cooling rack and cool completely. (You can freeze and thaw these in pairs so you won't be tempted to eat the whole batch.)
