Healthier Fruit Muffins Recipes

HEALTHY MUFFIN RECIPE (+ 6 FLAVOR VARIATIONS)

Steps:

• First, preheat oven to 350ºF and line a muffin tin with muffin liners. We suggest also spraying your muffin liners with cooking spray just in case.
• Next, place dry ingredients into a medium bowl and mix.
• Then, in a large bowl crack 2 eggs and whisk. Add maple syrup, almond milk, and preferred pureed fruit* and mix again.
• Add dry ingredients into wet ingredients and then mix. Then, add in melted coconut oil and mix again.
• At this point, add any of the add-ins for one of the 6 muffin recipes in this post and mix again.
• Fill each muffin about 3/4 of the way full (these are going to be big muffins). Then, place in the oven at 350ºF and bake for 18-22 minutes or until the center is fully cooked.
• Let cool for 5 minutes and then remove from the muffin tin to continue cooling.

FRUITBURST MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200C/gas 6/ fan 180C and very lightly butter a 12-hole muffin tin. Sift the flour and baking powder into a bowl. In another bowl, lightly beat the eggs, then stir in the melted butter, milk and honey. Add to the flour with the remaining ingredients. Combine quickly without overworking (it's fine if there are some lumps left - you want it gloopy rather than fluid). Spoon the mixture into the muffin tin. Bake for 20-25 minutes until well risen and pale golden on top.
• Leave in the tin for a few minutes before turning out. When cool, they'll keep in an airtight tin for two days. (Can be frozen for up to 1 month.)

• Combine all the dry ingredients and mix together. Then add the wet ingredients. Carefully add the fruit last.
• Pour batter into muffin cups, fill near to top. Sprinkle the mixed topping over the muffins. The sugar will bake into a "glaze" and the oats are for texture.
