1
Start by greasing your 12-well muffin tin and set aside. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
2
In a large bowl, whisk together the coconut sugar, molasses and eggs until smooth.
3
Add the apple cider, olive oil and milled flax seeds to the egg mixture and whisk until well incorporated. Set aside for five minutes to allow the flax to hydrate.
4
In another large bowl, combine the oat flour, baking soda, cinnamon, cardamom, ginger and salt. Mix well. Slowly add the flax mixture to the flour mixture and stir until incorporated.
5
Gently fold in the apple and raisins. Portion the batter into the greased muffin tin, making sure to fill each well completely full.
6
Garnish with hemp hearts and raw sugar, if using. Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean. Allow the muffins to cool for 5 minutes in the pan, then transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling.
7
Keep the muffins in the fridge for up to 5 days or sealed in the freezer for up to 2 months.

Notes: Feel free to substitute the apple cider with apple juice if you like. To make oat flour, simply blend oats in a high-speed blender until they reach the consistency of flour.
