Servings: 12
Servings 12 People

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup unsweetened coconut or almond milk
  • ½ cup old fashioned oats
  • ⅓ cup sugar
  • ¼ cup vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 cups white whole wheat flour
  • 3 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¾ cup blackberries (fresh or frozen)

For the filling:

Instructions
 

  • Heat oven to 400ºF. Grease the bottoms of 12 muffin cups.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the coconut milk and oats. Stir well, then let rest 5 minutes. Mix in the sugar, oil, vanilla, and eggs.
  • In a second mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined, being careful not to overmix. Stir in the blackberries.
  • To make the filling, combine the cream cheese, lemon zest, and sugar. Stir until smooth.
  • Fill each muffin cup about halfway (there will be some batter left over). Spoon 1 scant teaspoon of filling into the center of each muffin, pressing it down into the batter. Top with remaining batter, covering the cream cheese filling completely.
  • Bake 15-18 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and spring back gently when you touch them. Remove from oven and let cool completely before removing from the pan.
