Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour
- 0.25 cup coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 3 large eggs
- 0.25 cup coconut oil
- 0.33 cup honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup applesauce (unsweetened)
- 1 medium apple, peeled, cored, and diced
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease with coconut oil.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt. Stir until well mixed.
In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk together the eggs, melted coconut oil, honey, vanilla extract, and applesauce until smooth and well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until combined.
Fold in the diced apple until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about three-quarters full.
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 22-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your delicious and healthy Paleo Apple Muffins as a snack or on-the-go breakfast!
