01
Step 1
Start by mixing the oats and almond milk in a big bowl. Cover it up and pop it in the fridge to soak overnight, or for about 8 to 12 hours, until the oats have absorbed most of the liquid. When you’re ready to bake, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.

Step 2
In the same bowl, add the egg whites, agave syrup, coconut oil, brown sugar, vanilla paste, cinnamon, baking powder, nutmeg, salt, and cardamom to the soaked oats. Give everything a good stir until it’s well combined. Gently fold in the blackberries so they don’t break up too much.

Step 3
Spoon the batter into the muffin cups, filling each about a quarter of a cup. Then, top each muffin with a tablespoon of blueberries for a little extra burst of flavor. Bake the muffins for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the tops feel firm and spring back when you gently press them. Let them cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy them warm, or store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days. They also freeze nicely for up to three months if you want to save some for later!
