Method

1. Preheat the Oven:

   • Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a muffin tin with a paper liner or grease it lightly with coconut oil if not avoiding oils entirely.

2. Mix Dry Ingredients:

   • In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, almond flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt.

3. Combine Wet Ingredients:

   • In another bowl, mix the unsweetened applesauce, plant-based milk, maple syrup (if using), and vanilla extract.

4. Make the Batter:

   • Gradually combine the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients. Fold in the diced apple pieces.

5. Fill and Bake:

   • Pour the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling it about 3/4 of the way.

   • Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

6. Cool and Serve:

   • Allow the muffin to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
