We teamed up with Vitamix to bring you festive recipes, like these muffins, using their Winter Spice Mix! 

Holiday Spice Blender Muffins
Gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan optional
Makes 1 dozen muffins

Ingredients:
2 ½ cups old-fashioned oats, (GF-certified) + 2 tbsp extra for sprinkling on top of muffins
1 large overripe banana, mashed
3/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
3/4 cup milk of your choice (I used hemp + almond)
2 large eggs (flax egg optional if vegan)
1/4 cup coconut oil, melted + 1 tbsp extra to grease the pan
2 tsp vanilla extract
1 tbsp Vitamix's Winter Spice Seasoning
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp Himalayan pink salt

Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 360ºF and lightly grease muffin tin with coconut oil.

2. Place all wet ingredients (applesauce, banana, milk, eggs, coconut oil, vanilla extract) into Vitamix blender, and blend until well combined. Add in all dry ingredients (oats, Winter Spice Seasoning, baking powder + soda, and salt) and blend until thoroughly combined and oats are broken down to a desired consistency.

3. Pour batter into muffin tins until 2/3 full in each cup, sprinkle remaining oats on top to decorate, and place tin in oven. Bake for about 20 minutes, until edges are golden and an inserted toothpick comes out clean.

4. Transfer over to a cooling rack, and then serve! Muffins stay good in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-5 days, and freeze well for up to 2 months
