Ingredients

  • ½ cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ cup pure maple syrup
  • 2 tsp pure vanilla extract optional
  • 1 ½ cups almond flour

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a muffin pan with muffin papers.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the applesauce, eggs, pure maple syrup, and pure vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, stir together the almond flour, tapioca flour, baking powder, baking soda, and sea salt.
  4. Pour the dry ingredients into the mixing bowl with the wet ingredients and stir well.
  5. Add in the orange zest and dried cranberries and mix well.
  6. Pour the muffin batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling the holes 3/4 of the way up.
  7. Bake on the center rack of the preheated oven for 22-28 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown around the edges and fully baked.
  8. Insert a digital thermometer into the center of a muffin. The muffins are cooked through and have the best texture when the internal temperature is between 190 and 205 degrees Fahrenheit.
  9. Allow the almond flour muffins to cool completely before removing the papers and eating.
