Muffins for breakfast?! Yep, these apple cinnamon muffins are easy and quick to make, only require a few staple ingredients and are nutritious and tasty at the same time. Can it get any better? The smell of apple and cinnamon always gives me that comforting, cozy and secure feeling, just like living back at home when I was little. So these apple cinnamon muffins are my go to when I want something comforting and delicious to eat. They are vegan, baked with oat flour, milk (plant based or regular) and apple sauce which makes them nutritious and suitable for different kind of food allergies and food preferences. You can eat them warm straight out of the oven or bake in advance and bring them along to snack on during the day. You can also pimp them up and serve for dessert with some ice cream or yogurt.
A few tips:
- The amount of sweetener can be adapted according to taste and how sweet you prefer your muffins.
- You can make these muffins with regular or plant based milk.
- You can swap the apple sauce for banana, but it will affect the taste slightly.
- I like to use sweet yet tart apples when making these muffins. You can use any kind you like or have at home, but preferably not too sour nor tasteless ones.
- Make sure to squeeze out as much excess water from the apples as possible, to avoid the muffins from turning out too wet.
- They can be baked in the oven or in an air fryer.
- You can top these muffins with crumble or leave them just as they are.
