Steps

1Preheat oven to 350 degrees F
2Add all ingredients, liquid first, into a blender (a heavy duty blender works best)
3Blend on low-medium speed until mixture is smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides, until blended and smooth. I used a Vitamix with a tamper to push the ingredients down into the blades.
4Spray a muffin tin with a healthy oil spray (I used walnut oil, you can also use a cooking spray for baking)
5Pour batter evenly into 12 muffin cups and bake for 20 minutes.
6Muffins are done when a toothpick comes out clean.
7Cool and enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container lined with a paper towel.
