1. Preparing Your Matcha Green Tea & Date Muffins: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and then begin prepping your ingredients as followed.
2
2. Sift the coconut flour before combining with the rest of your dry ingredients. This method will help to break down any lumps in the flour. Once your flour is sifted, combine with the rest of your dry ingredients. Add the chopped dates and stir to coat with the dry ingredients.

3. In another bowl, whisk together the apple sauce, egg and vanilla extract. Or, if you are a proud owner of a food processor and or Vitamix, pour all of the wet ingredients directly into it. Pulse for 10-20 seconds. Do not over mix.

4. Pour the wet ingredients over the dry ingredients and stir until blended. Again, be careful not to over mix otherwise your batter will loose its texture.

5. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about three-fourths full. Cook for about 15-20 minutes. Once the muffins are fully cooked, remove from the oven. Drizzle a small amount of raw honey over the tops of each muffin, then add a pinch of chopped pistachios for a more decorative appearance.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Swap the honey for maple syrup or agave for a slightly different but equally rich sweetness.
Leave out the nuts to make it nut-free, or swap in seeds for a similar crunch.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
