AppleMuffins_Headers

Absolutely love the taste of apples, no matter how we eat them. Baked or raw, they always taste so good! However, our favourite way to eat them is sautéed… add them to muffins and you’ve got a ridiculously tasty caramel-ly muffin!

Ingredients:
6 Small Gala Apples (or similar sweet ones) Sliced and Cubed
1 Tsp Cinnamon Essence (can sub for Vanilla)
1 Tbsp Cinnamon
1 Tbsp Agave Nectar Light
1 Tsp Coconut Oil
1 Cup Ground Gluten-Free Oats
2 Scoop BULK POWDERS™ Apple Crumble & Custard Whey
1 Scoop Vanilla Casein
1 Egg
3 Egg whites
2 Tbsp Cottage Cheese
3/4 Cup Unsweetened Almond Milk (or similar)
1/2 Cup Unsweetened Applesauce
1 Tsp Vanilla
1 Heaped Tsp Baking Powder
1 Level Tsp Baking Soda
1 Tsp Cider Vinegar

Directions:
Set your oven to 160-180 degrees while you prep.

Heat coconut oil in a non stick pan and add the chopped apples, cinnamon essence, cinnamon & agave and start sautéing your apples.

Leave them in low-med heat while you prepare your muffin mix, making sure you keep stirring the apples so they evenly golden.

For your muffin mix, add all your dry ingredients then your wet ingredients and using a whisk, mix vigorously. Line a muffin tray with muffin cases and check on your apples. they should have turned a golden rainbow of colours, with some more caramelised than others.

Add approx 3/4 of the sauteed apples to the mix and stir them in.
Spoon mix into your muffin cases and with a small spoon top all the muffins with the remaining sauteed apples.

Pop into hot oven for approximately 20 minutes.

You will see they bake quite quickly, so you need to make sure you take them out in time. They will be soft and springy to the touch, and may even look undone. If you are unsure simply break one apart and check. Once done, leave on a cooling rack and you’re done.
