  1. So stinkin excited to see this recipe! After making your lemon poppyseed muffins I cannot wait to try these! I do have a few questions. Can use half sorghum flour and half oat flour? And if i dont have enough applesauce do i use coconut oil or just regular almond milk to add moisture?
      1. Great thank you! I bought sorghum and millet flours this week and have been dying to use them in recipes. I love oat flour but sometimes my baked goods come out heavier than I like. Not sure if its the flour or just me as a rookie baker. LOL Have you ever used Millet flour? Why do you not use xanthum gum? Just curious as I am trying to learn more about gf, vegan baking.
        1. I haven't tried millet flour. I don't like to use xanthan gum. I find using 2 eggs helps do the same job. :)
          1. Ok thanks. I am allergic to eggs so that's why I asked :) Makes it a little tougher for me. Lol
  2. Hi Melissa, I made these today because my friend highly recommended them and her whole family loved them. I followed your recipe exactly, except for substituting eggs for the flax eggs. The muffins did not turn out well at all, they are basically inedible. I had to cook them over 20 minutes to get them fully cooked and not wet. I always thought that you could substitute eggs for flax eggs and vice versa. I can't think of anything else it could be, because I followed the recipe exactly. Thoughts?
    1. Hi Rachel! I am so sorry they didn't turn out for you. :( Regular eggs for flax eggs should not have made a difference. Did you squeeze the excess moisture out of the zucchini before using in this recipe? Larger zucchinis hold more water than the smaller ones.
      1. Maybe that was it- I used a huge zucchini. It didn't seem super wet so I didn't squeeze it out, but that probably was my mistake. Thanks for the reply, I'll try the recipe again and squeeze it out really well!!
