Ingredients
Method
Prep the Oven and Pan:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or spray it lightly with non-stick cooking spray.
Make the Oat Flour:
- Place the 2 cups of rolled oats into a blender or food processor. Blend on high speed for about 30 seconds until they turn into a fine, powdery flour consistency.
Mix Dry Ingredients:
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together your freshly made oat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Whisk Wet Ingredients:
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, honey, Greek yogurt, milk, vanilla extract, and melted extra virgin olive oil until smooth.
Combine:
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula just until combined—do not overmix.
Fold in Mix-Ins:
- Gently fold in about ¾ of your chopped cherries and ¾ of your chopped pistachios into the batter. Save the rest for the topping.
Scoop and Top:
- Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full. Press the remaining cherries and pistachios firmly into the top of each muffin for a beautiful finish.
Bake:
- Bake for 18 to 22 minutes. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.
Cool and Enjoy:
- Let the muffins rest in the hot pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
For a vegan version, use a flax egg and plant-based yogurt.
