We had some left over apples that were beyond what I like eating; pretty much as soon as they get soft I am over them. So I decided to make some muffins.
For Muffins:
- 1 c flour
- 1/2 c almond meal
- 1 t baking powder
- 1 t baking soda
- 1/4 c + 2T sugar
- 1 t ground cinnamon
- 1/2 t ground allspice
- 1/4 t salt
- 3/4 plain soy milk
- 1/3 c canola oil
- 1 t vanilla extract
- 1/2 c grated apple
- 1/2 c diced apple
For Topping:
- 1/4 c flour
- 1/4 c brown sugar
- 1/2 t ground cinnamon
- 1/4 t ground allspice
- pinch of salt
- 3 T canola oil
- 1/4 c maple granola
Prepare the topping by mixing all the dry topping ingredients except the granola together in a small bowl. Drizzle the oil in 1 T at a time while mixing with your fingertips until crumbs form. It may be slightly went. Then add the granola in and mix to crumble. Set aside
Preheat oven to 375F, line the muffin tin.
In a large mixing bowl mix together th flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, spices, salt and almond meal. Create a well in the center and add the soy milk, oil and vanilla. Mix, then fold in the grated and chopped apple.
Fill each muffin cup 2/3 full. Sprinkle the crumb topping over each muffin. Bake for 22 min.
