Ingredients

  • 2 large red apples e.g., Pink Lady or your preferred variety
  • 5 packets of sweetener e.g., sucralose – you can adjust the amount to taste
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil
  • ½ cup water 120 ml
  • 1 cup 110 g whole wheat flour
  • ½ cup 45 g rolled oats
  • 1 egg
  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it.
  • Peel, core, and finely dice the two large apples. Set them aside for later.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup (110 g) of whole wheat flour, 1/2 cup (45 g) of rolled oats, 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and 1 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder. Mix these dry ingredients thoroughly.
  • In another bowl, beat 1 egg and add 5 packets of sweetener (adjust to your preferred level of sweetness) and 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil. Mix until well combined.
  • Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Avoid overmixing, as this can make the muffins tough.
  • Gently fold the finely diced apples into the muffin batter. Ensure an even distribution of apple pieces.
  • Portion the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each one about 3/4 full. This allows room for the muffins to rise while baking.
  • Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  • Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for a few minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. Once cooled, your healthier Apple Muffins are ready to enjoy.
