If you like gingerbread you will love these Gingerbread Muffins with Lingonberries. This is a really easy and healthy recipe that is both gluten and sugar free. These muffins are soft, tender and juicy, has a lot of flavor and a delicious freshness from the lingonberries. To keep them healthy but still tender and juicy I used greek yogurt and apple sauce.

The lingonberries are also such a nice addition to the spicy gingerbread flavor. They provide a freshness to the muffins and make them more interesting.
