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

Print Recipe Pin Recipe
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.

Avena sativa also known as Milky oats or Oatstraw Avena sativa also known as Milky oats or Oatstraw is one of the most impactful herbs that I’ve ever worked with. I started using it regularly during a time where my nervous system was severely unregulated. 😫

The results were nothing short of amazing! I was way less stressed, not as easily triggered, slept better and even felt physically better thanks to the vitamins and minerals. 🌿

Herbalist Michael Moore said that Oatstraw is an ideal herb for those with “crispy critter syndrome” referring to those people who are overworked, burnt out and constantly in fight or flight mode. 

Beyond helping to regulate the nervous system Oatstraw has many other benefits for women including it’s ability to balance hormones (menopausal ladies, you need this one), increase milk production and helping with postpartum recovery. 💕

You can find Oatstraw in 3 of my tea blends…Happy, NORA and Nurse More. 🫖

NORA Pregnancy Tea 🤰 is a must-have if you’re NORA Pregnancy Tea 🤰 is a must-have if you’re expecting! 

NORA is an acronym for Nettle • Oatstraw • Red raspberry • Alfalfa. I also add a touch of Spearmint to my blend!

🌿 Nettle – nourishing to the adrenals and high in vitamins, minerals and protein, helps to maintain blood sugar levels, use postpartum for milk supply

🌿 Oatstraw – similar properties to Nettle as a nerve and nutritive tonic

🌿 Red raspberry leaf – high in vitamins and minerals, toning to the uterus, historically used by Indigenous tribes

🌿 Alfalfa – one of the richest sources of vitamins including vitamin K, minerals and protein

🌿 Spearmint – a nervine and relaxant and a yummy edition to the typical NORA tea blend, helps to also keep nausea at bay

According to master herbalist Rachel Weaver, drinking this blend faithfully will help to shorten the duration and intensity of labor. 🙌
