Servings: 12 muffins
Ingredients
For the Muffins:
- 195 grams gluten-free flour blend, about 1 1/2 cups
- 100 grams gluten-free oats, about 1 cup
- 150 grams brown sugar, about 3/4 cup packed
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 ½ tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp salt
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- ½ cup almond milk, room temperature
- ½ cup unsweetened applesauce
- ¼ cup vegetable oil
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup Granny Smith apples, peeled and chopped into small cubes
For the Streusel:
- 50 grams gluten-free oats, about 1/4 cup
- 16 grams gluten-free flour blend, about 2 tbsp
- 25 grams brown sugar, about 2 tbsp, packed
- ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
- 2 tbsp vegan butter, melted
Instructions
- In a large bowl, add the gluten-free flour, gluten-free oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix until combined.
- In a medium bowl, add the eggs, almond milk, applesauce, oil, and vanilla. Stir to combine.
- Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet ingredients. Stir just until everything is fully combined.
- Fold in the chopped apples. Set the batter aside to rest for 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Prepare a 12-cup muffin tin by spraying with cooking spray.
- Meanwhile, prepare the streusel by adding the oats, gluten-free flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and melted butter to a small bowl. Mix with your fingers or a fork to fully combine. It does not need to be uniform and is often better with chunks of different sizes.
- After the batter has rested, fill the muffin cups ¾ of the way full with batter. Sprinkle each top with about 1 tbsp of the streusel.
- Bake the muffins for 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs.
- Let the muffins cool slightly, then remove from the pan and serve.
Notes
- Measure by weight where weight is given.
- Bring all ingredients to room temperature.
- The rest time for the batter is important for hydration of the gluten-free flour and oats.
- Granny Smith apples are recommended for this recipe.
- Any dairy-free milk can be used.
