  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. If using, gently fold in the chopped pecans or chocolate chips.
  6. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  8. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Ensure your oat flour is certified gluten-free if you have celiac disease or a severe gluten sensitivity.
  • For a richer flavor, you can add a pinch of allspice to the dry ingredients.
  • These muffins are delicious served warm or at room temperature.
