Ingredients
- 3 T almond flour
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1 T unsweetened applesauce (can sub for canned pumpkin)
- 1 large egg (can substitute for 2 egg whites)
- 1-3 T liquid of choice (I used almond milk)
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- Sea salt
- 1-2 T raisins
- Almond flour/meal, for dusting (optional)
Instructions
- Spray a microwave safe cereal bowl with cooking spray and add the almond flour and baking powder and mix until combined
- Add the unsweetened applesauce, egg and liquid of choice* and mix very well until all ingredients are fully incorporated
- Add the cinnamon and sea salt. Stir through the raisins and put into the microwave for 2-4 minutes, depending on the power
- Remove from the microwave and dust either side generously with almond meal. Allow to cool, slice in half and pop in a toaster. Dust again with almond meal and top as you would an English muffin
- Use 1 T of liquid at a time until it reaches a batter like consistency- it really is dependent on the kind of almond flour being used
- Allow to cool completely before slicing, otherwise you will end up with an uneven muffin
- These muffins are not very sweet- add some coconut sugar if you want a sweeter muffin
- You can sub the 3 T almond flour for 1 T coconut flour but the texture is very difficult to replicate
