Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp flaxseed
  • 4 tbsp water
  • 100ml maple syrup
  • 80g almond butter
  • 1 tsp almond extract
  • 100g soy yoghurt
  • 50ml plant milk
  • 180g self-raising flour
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 50g ground almonds
  • 1 tbsp Linwoods Sprouted Flax
  • 30g maple syrup
  • ½ tsp almond extract
  • 30ml plant milk
  • flaked almonds
  • icing sugar , for dusting

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C fan and line a muffin tin with 6 cases. In a small bowl, mix the flaxseed with water and leave to thicken for 5 minutes.

  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the thickened flax mix, maple syrup, almond butter, almond extract, soy yogurt, and plant milk. Add the self-raising flour and salt, and gently fold until just combined – avoid overmixing.

  3. In a separate bowl, mix together all the almond filling ingredients until a thick paste forms. Spoon half of the muffin batter into the cases, add a dollop of almond filling to each, then top with the remaining batter. Sprinkle with flaked almonds and bake for 20 minutes, or until golden and a skewer comes out clean.

  4. Allow to cool slightly, then dust with icing sugar before serving.
