Preheat oven to 350F. Place 12 muffin liners into muffin pan and spray with cooking spray.
Combine flour, sugar, baking soda, cinnamon and salt in a bowl. Ensure all lumps from coconut sugar and almond flour are mixed.
Mix egg, coconut oil, oat milk, banana and vanilla extract into a bowl. Stir into dry ingredients until just moistened. Fold in optional mix-ins.
Use an ice cream scoop to portion out 12 muffins. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Notes
Muffin mixture will seem thicker than typical recipes prior to baking. Only add additional moisture if the mixture is unable to be mixed.
Make this into a loaf by adding batter to a prepared bread pan and increasing bake time to 55-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
StorageTips: Make ahead for the week and store muffins in an airtight container for 3-4 days on the counter. If you prefer them to be cold, you may store them in the refrigerator (this may cut down on them getting too sticky.)
Freezer Tips: freeze cooled muffins in a freezer-proof container for up to 3 months.
