Sugar-Free Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal Muffins
Jenny Sugar, from POPSUGAR
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon flaxmeal
3 tablespoons water
1 cup unsweetened non-dairy milk (I used Silk Unsweetened Vanilla Almond and Cashew Milk)
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
2 bananas
2 small apples peeled and finely chopped (1 1/2 packed cups)
1/3 cup applesauce (I used one of those little cups that come in the six-pack)
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
1 cup rolled or quick oats (I used quick oats)
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt (optional)
Directions
- Preheat oven.
- In a small bowl, mix together the flaxmeal and water and set aside for a few minutes to thicken.
- In a small bowl or measuring cup, whisk together the non-dairy milk and apple cider vinegar, and set aside for a few minutes to curdle (this makes vegan buttermilk).
- In a large bowl, mash the bananas until smooth and creamy. Peel, core, and chop the apples into pea-size pieces. Add them to the bowl with the banana, and add in the applesauce and vanilla. Stir in the flax and milk mixtures.
- In a medium bowl or mixing cup, mix together the flour, oats, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix well.
- Scoop batter into muffin cups and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the muffin comes out clean.
