Ingredients

The following ingredients have 12 Servings
  • 1 cup (120 g) whole wheat pastry flour*
  • 1 cup (80 g) old fashioned rolled oats**
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup (225 g) plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) unsweetened applesauce
  • 1/4 cup (50 g) brown sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 medium-sized apple (120 g), peeled, cored, and grated
  • 1/2 cup (80 g) raisins

Instruction

  • Preheat your oven to 350F (176C) and prepare a muffin pan by spraying the cavities with cooking spray or lining them with paper liners. Set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, oats, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.
  • Lightly beat the egg in a separate bowl. Whisk in the yogurt, applesauce, brown sugar, vanilla, and grated apple, stirring until well-combined.
  • Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing gently until just combined. Fold in the raisins.
  • Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling them almost to the top. Add a sprinkle of oats if desired.
  • Bake the muffins for 20-22 minutes, or until top is firm to the touch and toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean. Allow the muffins to cool in pan for ~10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Store them in an air-tight container for up to 5 days, or freeze them for up to 3 months.
