Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the cups.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free oat bran, almond flour, tapioca flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the almond milk, applesauce, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold together until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
If using, fold in the raisins and chopped walnuts to the batter.
Using a spoon or cookie scoop, evenly divide the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the fridge for up to a week.
