Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Lightly grease a twelve-muffin tin or add muffin liners to a muffin tin.
  • In a large bowl, sift together the dry ingredients: flour, coconut sugar, baking powder, salt, and the spices.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients: applesauce, milk, oil, and maple syrup. Pour the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and mix.
  • Fill the muffin cups two-thirds full. Bake in the preheated oven for 18 to 20 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • Let them cool down for 5-10 minutes before removing from the muffin tin. Yields 12 muffins.

Notes

Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container with a paper towel under them to absorb any moisture. They will last about a week in the fridge. You can also freeze the muffins for up to 3 months. 
Substitutions: For best results, follow the recipe as is. However here are some common substitutes that would work well in this recipe.
  • Feel free to change up the spices or increase/decrease quantities as you see fit.
  • Instead of grapeseed oil, you can substitute any other neutral oil like canola, vegetable or safflower oil.
  • Instead of applesauce, you can use other fruit purees like banana or pumpkin.
  • Instead of diary-free milk, you can use regular cow's milk.
