{Sugar Free} Spiced apple and cinnamon muffins, making Monday, or anytime you eat them, all kinds of magical!

Ima keep this short but sweet for you today because;

1 – It’s officially school holidays here which means I can’t really hear myself think and also, I don’t like to be tied to my laptop while the little lady is around. And,

2 – Who wants to listen to (or should I say read) me waffling on when there are muffins to be made!

You guys, these sugar free, spiced apple and cinnamon muffins . . .

I know they don’t really look like much but hear me when I say, they really do taste all kinds of magical!

They are subtly sweet, soft , tender, light, fluffy, super moist (sorry but there really isn’t any other word to describe that texture) perfectly spiced and just all kinds of incredible!

Sweetened naturally with pureed apple, a splash of vanilla and a generous pinch of spices that will warm your soul!

Super simple to make, made with no refined flours or sugars using just a handful of ingredients that I bet you have on hand already and can be ready to devour in less than 20 minutes!

Serve them simply as they are, or with lashings of almond or cashew butter + a vat cup of coffee (green tea / matcha latte or beverage of choice) for the perfect morning treat or afternoon pick me up.

Build yourself an epic breakfast bowl – sugar free spiced apple and cinnamon muffin on top of a big bowl of your fave yogurt (I ♥ vanilla or salted caramel with these babes) , slice some strawberries, sprinkle with some of this glorious pumpkin and cranberry {grain free} granola for a little crunch then, finish with a drizzle with nut butter  – heaven in a bowl I tell you!

Or, for the ultimate treat / late night dessert . . .

Serve with a drizzle of salted caramel chocolate . . .

1 bowl + 5 ingredients ( a handful of spices) and 20 minutes and you too could be devouring this deliciousness!

Ingredients –

For the muffins;

1 cup of apple puree

3 eggs – vegan friends sub your fave egg placers

1/4 teaspoon each of nutmeg, cardamom & cloves

1 teaspoon of baking powder

Optional add-ins ;

1 teaspoon of maca – for hormone balance

Method –

1 – Pre-heat oven to 175’C/350/F

2 – Line a muffin tray with paper cases (or grease well) and set aside.

3 – Whisk together apple puree, eggs, vanilla, baking powder, baking soda and spices (and any extras you’re using) until well combined.
