# Preheat oven to 375°F.
# Lightly spray a regular size muffin tin with lecithin spray.
# Toast the pecans in the oven for 7 – 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
# Allow the nuts to cool.
# Then coarsely chop them with a knife or with a pulsing action in a food processor.
# Coarsely chop the peaches.
# In a medium size bowl, mix together the fruit sweetener, eggs, oil, vanilla, peach extract and applesauce.
# Stir in the oat bran and the rolled oats.
# Let this mixture sit for a minimum of 10 minutes while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.
# Sift the dry ingredients into a large bowl, stir in the pecans and the date pieces.
