Einkorn Applesauce Muffins

April 13, 2020 · In: featured, recipes

einkorn applesauce muffins with blueberries

I love having a batch of fresh baked muffins in the house for the kids to eat for breakfast with a side of scrambled eggs or to grab as quick afternoon snack. These Einkorn Applesauce Muffins are not only delicious but also nutrient dense because of the Einkorn flour. I’ve also used coconut sugar in the recipe instead of cane sugar to make them even more healthy. The only problem with these muffins is is that they go really fast around here so it’s always a good idea to double the recipe!

Benefits of Einkorn Flour

I’ve used Einkorn flour in this recipe because it is a much healthier alternative to most flours. Some experts even consider it to be a superfood! And the whole family agree that it tastes much better in recipes than whole wheat or all-purpose. Below are a few quick reasons besides taste why I love Einkorn flour and try to bake with it as much as possible.

  • lower in gluten
  • easier to digest because it contains 14 chromosomes vs 42 found in modern wheat
  • higher in protein and fiber
  • abundant in vitamins and minerals like B6 and zinc
  • contains carotenoid which acts as an antioxidant in the body
  • lower in starch and carbohydrates

Servings 12 muffins

Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cups Einkorn flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2/3 cup coconut sugar
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 8 Tblsp melted unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 egg

Instructions
 

  • Combine dry ingredients and whisk until combined.
  • Combine wet ingredients in another bowl and beat with a mixer.
  • Add dry and wet ingredients together, mixing well.
  • Pour into greased muffin pan.
  • Bake at 375 degrees for 20-25 minutes.
  • Let cool and enjoy!

Vegan Substitutions

  • Swap out pumpkin puree for applesauce to change this recipe up. I love to do this for fall!
  • If you have too many ripe bananas then use them in place of the applesauce.
  • To make these muffins dairy free use a plant based milk like oat milk and trade coconut oil for butter. They are still super yummy and moist!
  • For a totally vegan option use the dairy free substitutions listed above and swap out the egg for either an extra 1/4 cup applesauce or use flaxseed instead. Making a flaxseed substitute is easy! Just whisk 1 Tblsp flaxseed meal with 3 Tblsp of water. Let sit for 5-10 minutes or until it turns into a think gel. Flaxseed has many health benefits too like being a good source of omega 3 fatty acids and protein.

I celebrated St Patrick’s Day with an iced Match I celebrated St Patrick’s Day with an iced Matcha latte…just kidding I make one everyday! But it did feel a little bit more festive today. ☘️ Matcha is full of antioxidants, anti-inflammatory properties and an amino acid called L-theanine that helps to reduce anxiety. It also gives me an energy boost without the jitters! 

Iced Matcha Latte 
• 1 tsp Matcha green tea
• 1 cup milk of choice
• 1 cup ice
• 1-2 tsp honey
• sprinkle of cinnamon (personal preference) 

Add Matcha to a small bowl and pour warm water over it. Whisk to remove clumps. Pour into a glass with milk and ice. Add honey and cinnamon. Enjoy and Happy St Paddy’s Day! 🌈
Lately I’ve been meditating on what art is and w Lately I’ve been meditating on what art is and what being an artist means. I’ve concluded that art is everywhere, from keeping a home, baking bread to working with plants. Artists aren’t just those who paint or write but those that make the world more beautiful in whatever capacity they can. Would you agree? #mondaymotivation

Just peel off the outer cover and you’ll find a little seed pod inside. The seeds can be bitter so either boil or roast them. I’ve heard that they’re good mixed into mashed potatoes!
