Cook Time: 25 minutes
Total Time: 35 minutes
Servings: 12 servings
Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon cinnamon
zest of 1 lemon
2 tsps baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
1 cup unsweetened apple sauce
¼ cup vegetable oil
1 egg
½ cup maple syrup/ honey
1 cup Honeycrisp or Cortland apples
1 cup cranberries
For streusel topping:
½ cup all-purpose flour
½ cup granola
½ cup coconut oil or butter, melted
½ cup brown sugar
Directions:
Chop the apple.
Mix dry ingredients together.
In a separate bowl, whisk egg thoroughly until airy. Add oil, applesauce, and maple syrup in a steady stream, continuing to whisk throughout.
Make a well in the middle of the dry mixture, and add the wet mixture. Stir only until combined (do not overmix).
Add the apple and cranberries and fold them in gently.
Oil a muffin pan very thoroughly. Fill each muffin cavity to the top.
If using streusel topping, stir all the dry ingredients together. Add melted coconut oil or butter slowly, and stir to combine. Top each muffin with a tablespoon of streusel topping.
Bake at 400°F for 20-25 mins, until the tops are golden and a toothpick comes out clean.
