03 - In a separate bowl, whisk eggs, almond milk, maple syrup, almond butter, and vanilla extract until smooth and well incorporated.
04 - Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined to avoid overmixing.
05 - Carefully fold mixed winter berries into the batter, taking care not to crush them.
06 - Divide the batter evenly among muffin cups, filling each nearly full.
07 - Optionally, top each cup with sliced almonds and a drizzle of almond butter.
08 - Bake for 22 to 25 minutes until centers are set and tops turn lightly golden.
09 - Let the cups cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
10 - If desired, drizzle with extra maple syrup before serving.

# Extra Suggestions:

01 - Use certified gluten-free oats to maintain gluten-free status. Store in an airtight container refrigerated up to 5 days or freeze up to 3 months. Reheat before serving.
