Ingredients
- 2 cups flour all purpose or a gluten-free 1-to-1 blend
- ½ cup coconut sugar
- 1 ½ tsp. baking soda
- 1 - 1 ½ tsp. apple pie spice to taste*
- ½ tsp. salt
- 1 cup applesauce unsweetened
- ⅓ cup pure maple syrup
- 2 eggs room temperature
- 1 tsp. vanilla
- 1 Tbsp. sugar optional
- ⅛ tsp. cinnamon optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Mix together flour, coconut sugar, baking soda, apple pie spice, and salt in a medium-sized bowl. Whisk together applesauce, maple syrup, eggs, and vanilla in a separate large bowl. Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients. Mix by hand until just combined.
- Place muffin cup liners into 12 cavities of a regular-sized muffin tray. Spray each liner with non-stick cooking spray. Evenly distribute the muffin batter into all 12 cups. They should end up being about ¾ full.
- Whisk together cinnamon and sugar in a small bowl and sprinkle ¼ teaspoon over each of the muffins.
- Bake muffins in preheated oven for 22-25 minutes, or until a toothpick when inserted in comes out clean. Let cool to room temperature before serving. Enjoy!
Notes
- To Prep-Ahead: It is so simple to bake these muffins the day before you need them! Or, make homemade applesauce ahead of time so you're ready.
- To Store: The muffins will keep for up to 2-3 days at room temperature. To prevent them from getting soggy, line the bottom of a Tupperware container with a paper towel. Add muffins and then place an additional paper towel on top to absorb the excess moisture.
- To Freeze: Make sure you remove the muffin cup liners before freezing. Place the muffins in a single layer on a baking sheet and freeze for 6-8 hours, or until firm. Once partially frozen, add them to a freezer-safe Ziploc bag and store for up to 4-6 months.
- To Reheat: Allow the frozen muffins to thaw in the fridge. Or, pop them in the microwave for 20-second intervals until they are at the desired temperature.
