Golden Apple Almond Muffins

Ingredients:

  • 2 peeled and chopped apples
  • 150 g (5.07 oz) whole grain spelt flour
  • 100 g (3.38 oz) almond flour
  • 10 g (0.34 oz) baking powder
  • 80 g (2.71 oz) birch sugar (xylitol)
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 4 tablespoons honey
  • 100 g (3.38 oz) Greek yogurt
  • 80 ml (2.71 fl oz) milk or unsweetened almond milk
  • 2 eggs

For Topping:

  • About 70 g (2.37 oz) roughly chopped almonds
  • 1-2 tablespoons coconut blossom sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon


Instructions


Wash, peel, and chop the apples into small cubes.

Preheat the oven to 170°C (338°F).

Line a muffin tin with paper muffin liners.


Roughly chop the almonds and mix them with cinnamon and coconut blossom sugar.

In a large bowl, combine all the dry ingredients: spelt flour, almond flour, birch sugar, baking powder, and cinnamon.

In another bowl, whisk the eggs until frothy, then add Greek yogurt, milk, and honey.


Mix the wet and dry ingredients together until just combined, then gently fold in the chopped apples.


Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling them almost to the top.

Generously sprinkle each muffin with the almond topping mixture.


Bake for 20 minutes, or until the edges are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean but slightly moist.
