Healthy Apple Muffins

These tasty Apple Muffins are made with coconut flour, coconut oil, applesauce, maple syrup, chopped apples & walnuts – a delicious breakfast or afternoon snack. They are fluffy, with perfect texture and just enough sweetness to be irresistible.

You won’t believe these delicious apple muffins are flourless and totally gluten-free.

Coconut flour is difficult to work with but this recipe is foolproof and has been tested and retested to get the best consistency and delicious taste. It’s definitely a recipe I am going to keep in my back pocket for when I want to make a delicious and healthy afternoon snack.

I was very excited when I received Regina’s eBook Coconut Flour: Pancakes, Muffins and Mug Cakes for review. I like to bake healthy muffins & pancakes but sometimes it’s so hard to create healthy muffins that also have a great texture and taste.

How to Make Healthy Apple Muffins

• Preheat the oven to 375° F. Grease or line a muffin pan.
• In a bowl, whisk together coconut flour, tapioca flour, baking soda, salt, and apple pie spice mix.
• In another bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients (eggs, applesauce, coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla extract) until smooth and combined.
• Add the flour mix to the wet mixture and stir until all lumps are gone. (Alternatively, you can blend all ingredients in a food processor or blender.)
• Fold diced apples and walnuts into the batter by hand, set some aside for topping.
• Divide batter into 12 muffin cavities and top each with a few apple and walnut pieces. Bake for 17-20 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
• Allow muffins to cool in pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Store covered.

How to Bake with Coconut Flour

It can be tricky to work with coconut flour especially if you don’t have experience working with it. Because of its highly hygroscopic nature, coconut flour absorbs liquids very well and can leave the batter to feel rather dry.

Regina has worked hours to do recipe testing and perfect her recipes in the eBook, so we can enjoy hassle-free baking with coconut flour. If you are looking for gluten-free and paleo-friendly recipes for delicious and healthy treats & pancakes, you have to check out her eBook. She also shares a video for making delicious grain free coconut flour pumpkin muffins. Her eBook is full of great recipes for pancakes, muffins and mug cakes. I tried one of each category, and the texture was perfect every time. I love the fact that all of the ingredients are clean & healthy, and I won’t feel guilty eating a muffin for breakfast or for an afternoon snack.
