Soft and moist muffins without any gluten, eggs, dairy, fat or added sugar. Made with just ripe pears, Medjoul dates, oat flour and millet flour. Some baking powder is optional to create just a bit more fluffiness.

Ingredients

Pears – Ripe and juicy. How many depends on the size, but you will need a cup peeled, cleaned and diced. I used 1,5 large pears.
Dates – Best to use soft Medjoul dates. You can measure them without pit, packed not to tightly in a cup. I used 12 big dates, but you might not up to 14.
Oat flour – One cup. Store bought or grind rolled oats into flour yourself. When I do, I use an electric coffee grinder.
Millet flour – A quarter cup. Store bought or grind whole grains yourself, again that works really well with a coffee grinder.
Baking powder – Optional. Leave out on a cleanse or if not available. When used: preferably without corn and aluminum.

Are oats glutenfree?

Oats are naturally glutenfree. But they are often processed in the same place as wheat or other gluten containing grains. So they can be cross contaminated. Always check the labels to see if they are guaranteed glutenfree.

FAQ

Is this recipe vegan?

Yes, you don’t have to use eggs or dairy.

Is this recipe Medical Medium?

Yes, it’s glutenfree and vegan. And its even fatfree, so also ok for breakfast. Oat and millet are filler foods, not healing. But they are the two preferred flours made from grains.

Are the muffins ok on a 369 cleanse?

Yes, but only on days you can have a bit of oats or millet. Like the first three days of a 369 original. Leave out the baking powder.

Is this recipe AIP paleo?

No, (pseudo)grains are not paleo and therefor not AIP either.

4 baking cups (PFASfree, non-bleach)
and/or muffin tin
bowl + fork
small kitchen aid

1 cup pears
1 cup Medjoul dates
1 cup gf oat flour
¼ cup millet flour
2 tsp baking powder optional, leave out on a 369

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 360F or 180C. Prepare a muffin tin with 4 baking cups.
De-pit the dates and cut into pieces. Peel and clean the pear(s). Add both to a small kichtenaid and blend.
Mix the oat and millet flour (and baking powder if used) in a bowl. Add the pear/date paste. Mix.

Notes

I prefer using both paper baking cups and a (ceramic) muffin tin and place the paper cups in the tin. This makes the cups stable when filling and easy to handle.
