Gluten Free Apple Muffins

Makes: 12

INGREDIENTS

240g FreshLife Almond Flour

1 tsp ground cinnamon

1 tsp gluten-free baking powder

½ tsp baking soda

½ tsp salt

3x size 7 Eggs

160ml maple syrup

3 tbsp vegetable oil

1 tsp vanilla essence

2 medium apples

75g FreshLife Walnut Pieces

For the topping:

2 tbsp raw sugar

1 tsp cinnamon

METHOD

  • Preheat the oven to 180 degrees C. Line a 12-cup muffin pan with greaseproof bake cups.

  • Whisk all the dry ingredients in a bowl to remove any lumps.

  • In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, maple syrup, vegetable oil, and vanilla essence.

  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ones and mix until just combined.

  • Chop one of the unpeeled apples into small pieces and fold into the batter with the walnut pieces. Don’t overmix - this will make the muffins tough.

  • Spoon the batter into the baking cups. Cut the remaining apple into thin slices and arrange 3 pieces on top of each muffin. Mix the raw sugar and cinnamon together for the topping and sprinkle a little over each muffin.

  • Bake for 35 minutes or until the top of the muffins turn golden brown.
