Apple Sauce Muffins with Maple Syrup
- Number of Servings: 14
Ingredients
1/2 1% milk1 cup applesauce3 tbsp. olive oil or butter1/3 cup maple syrup or honey1 tbsp. ground flax seed (I used about 3 Tbs)*2 cups whole wheat or spelt flour1/2 tsp. baking soda1/2 tsp. cinnamon1 – 2 tbsp lemon zest 1 cup raisins or currants
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Lightly oil the muffin tin. Caroline suggests using coconut oil. I used an organic canola oil spray that I have — not the ideal choice, but I use so little….
2. In a medium-sized bowl, combine the wet ingredients and ground flax seeds.
3. In another larger bowl, mix the dry ingredients and then fold in the wet ingredients.
4. Add the raisins and stir until everything’s mixed and you get a nice moist batter (never over-stir when baking).
5. Spoon the batter into the muffin tin.
6. Bake for about 20 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the centre of the muffin comes out clean.
7. Let the muffins cool for 5-10 minutes, and remove them from the tin.
Muffins freeze really well. So, you can put some in an air-tight container to freeze. This will prevent you from eating them all at once, too
