For the chocolate cookie topping:
- 1/4 cup flax meal
- 3 tbsp dutch process cocoa powder
- 1 & 1/2 tbsp maple syrup
Here are the directions that you need to follow in order to complete this recipe:
-
First, you need to preheat your oven to 425F.
-
In a small blender, blend together all of the oat milk, avocado oil, peppermint extract and mint leaves. You want it to blend until you get a smooth green colored mixture.
-
In a large bowl, whisk together all of the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt.
-
Gradually add the wet ingredients in with the dry and whisk together until just combined.
-
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the flax and cocoa powder. Add the maple syrup and mix. The mixture should come together but be slightly crumbly, just like oreo cookie crumbles.
-
Use muffins liners (or if you are lazy like me, parchment paper!) and line a 6-count muffin tin. Pour in the batter equally to each muffin tin.
-
Top each muffin with about 1/2 tbsp of the cookie crumble mix. Use a toothpick to break up the mix and swirl it around the tops of the muffins.
-
Bake the muffins for 5 minutes at 425F. Then, without opening the oven door, decrease the heat to 375F and bake for another 15 minutes.
-
Remove them from the oven and let them cool. Share them with family and friends or dig right in and enjoy!
