Ingredients

Apple Cider Muffins Ingredients

  • ⅔ cup coconut sugar
  • ¼ cup dairy free butter melted
  • ½ cup unsweetened apple sauce
  • ¾ cup apple cider
  • 1 tbsp Bragg Raw Unfiltered Organic With The Mother Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 2 cups gluten free 1:1 flour
  • 2½ tsp cinnamon
  • ½ tsp nutmeg
  • ½ tsp ground cloves
  • ½ tsp allspice
  • ½ tsp sea salt
  • ¾ tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp baking powder

Streusel Topping Ingredients (optional)

  • ⅓ cup coconut sugar
  • ½ cup gluten free 1:1 flour
  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • pinch of salt
  • 6 tbsp cold dairy-free butter cut into cubes

Cinnamon Glaze Ingredients (optional)

  • ½ cup powdered sweetener
  • 2 tsp apple cider
  • ¼ tsp cinnamon
  • ½ tsp vanilla

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350.
  • Add the coconut sugar, butter, apple sauce, apple cider and apple cider vinegar to a bowl and whisk to combine.
  • Add the remaining dry ingredients and whisk just until combined.
  • Divide the batter evenly in the muffin tin, filling each cup nearly full.
  • Make the streusel topping by adding the ingredients to a bowl and using a pastry cutter or two forks to create a crumble. Sprinkle on each of the muffins.
  • Transfer to the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, until an inserted toothpick comes out mostly clean.
  • Let cool completely and transfer to a cooling rack.
  • If using, prepare the cinnamon glaze by combining the ingredients in a bowl with a fork. Drizzle over each muffin. Let the glaze harden and enjoy!
