- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Fill muffin pan with paper muffin cups or use a non-stick muffin pan.
- In a large bowl, add the ground rolled oats, baking powder, and cinnamon. For a lighter consistency, put all of the dry ingredients through a sifter.
- Add the applesauce and the flax-date mixture to a blender. Blend until the mix has an even consistency.
