- In a large bowl, combine soy milk, lemon juice, applesauce, brown sugar, walnut butter, and vanilla extract.
- Add rolled oats, almond flour, cinnamon, and salt and stir to combine.
- Sift in whole wheat flour, baking powder, and baking soda. Fold together until just combined, then add apples and fold a few more times to distribute.
- Cover the bowl and rest the batter for 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a muffin pan with paper liners or silicone liners.Tip: If using paper liners, lightly grease them with oil to help the muffins release better.
- Divide batter into the muffin cups.
- Bake at 400°F for 5 minutes, then lower the temperature to 350°F and continue baking another 12-15 minutes until cooked through. A toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin should come out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
- Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes, then carefully remove the muffins from the pan and place them directly on a wire rack to finish cooling.
