These apple cheesecake muffins are tender, moist, juicy with a lovely mix of apple chunks, cinnamon and cheesecake. They are ready in only 20 minutes and made with a few simple ingredients. Serve them for breakfast, as an afternoon snack or when you crave something nutritious, delicious and healthy at the same time. They are gluten, nut, oil and sugar free.

Muffins that can be eaten all day round?! Can it get any better? I really love baking things that can be eaten for both breakfast, afternoon snack and dessert. It’s convenient, assures that you have something to snack on throughout the day whenever you get a bit hungry or crave something delicious and at the same time know you’re nurturing your body. These muffins are filled with chunks of apple, cinnamon and lovely creamy, sweet yet slightly tangy swirl of cheesecake filling inside. They are tender, juicy, perfectly sweet and absolutely delicious! Since they’re baked with oat and coconut flour they’re filling and nutritious, but not overwhelming since they’re baked with monk fruit sweetener and apple sauce acting as the sweeteners and without any nuts or oil. You can of course vary these muffins by using different fruits or berries like pears, blueberries, raspberries to mention a few. But there is something special about the mix of apples, cinnamon and cheesecake that is just too good to miss out on.

A few tips:

The amount of sweetener can be adapted according to taste and how sweet you prefer your muffins.
I used a mix of cream cheese and greek yogurt for the cheesecake batter to make it less heavy but also to add a slightly more distinct tangy taste to it. You can swap the Greek yogurt for more cream cheese if preferred.
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 the most sour or tasteless ones.
Dice the apples into fairly small dices. You don’t want any too big chunks in your muffins when you take a bite. But still make sure not to make them too small, you still want to clearly feel the taste and texture of the apples.
You can top these muffins with some oat crumble before baking or leave them just as they are.
