Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 120 ml Unsweetened applesauce
- 70 grams Brown sugar
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 120 ml Low-fat milk
- 1 medium Apple (peeled, cored, and diced small)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease each cup.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon.
In a separate bowl, combine the unsweetened applesauce, brown sugar, egg, and vanilla extract. Whisk until well blended.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined.
Pour the low-fat milk into the batter and mix until smooth. Take care not to overmix.
Fold the diced apple pieces into the batter until evenly distributed.
Divide the batter evenly among the 12 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 pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your low-fat apple and cinnamon muffins!
