Ingredients for these Vegan Apple Sauce Muffins
See the recipe card below for full ingredient amounts and recipe instructions!
- All Purpose Flour: I only use AP flour which has a really nice texture and crumb. It’s a really nice consistent flour, so it goes into all my breads, muffins, and cakes!
- Old Fashioned Oats: I used whole rolled oats for this (not quick oats!) whole oats keep their shape and prevent the muffins from getting mushy in the centers.
- Sugar: I used a plain white granulated sugar for this recipe, but you can use whatever sweetener you have on hand. If you prefer a natural sweetener (like coconut sugar) you can substitute instead of white sugar.
- Cinnamon: gives these muffins a warm spicy kick! I love a pinch of cinnamon in my muffins, and these are the perfect fall or winter breakfast.
- Baking Powder: I like to use a no sodium baking powder in all my recipes.
- Ground Ginger
- Salt: Just a pinch, for flavor.
- Apple Sauce: I used a delicious apple sauce for this recipe, but you can always add a cinnamon apple sauce for a little extra spice!
- Coconut Oil: Gives these muffins a really silky texture, and the hint of coconut flavor is really nice with the apples and cinnamon.
- Almond Milk: or any plant-based milk you prefer
- Vanilla extract
How Do I Make This Vegan Apple Cinnamon Muffin Recipe?
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease a muffin pan, or full each cup with liners.
- In a large mixing bowl, add all the dry ingredients: flour, oats, sugar, cinnamon, baking powder, ginger, and salt. Mix to combine.
- Add the wet ingredients into the dry: the apple sauce, coconut oil, almond milk, and vanilla extract. Stir well. Batter should be thick but if you want to thin it out, add a splash of almond milk.
- Place a 1/3 scoop of batter into each muffin cup until cups are evenly full. Sprinkle with extra cinnamon and sugar, if desired.
- Bake muffins for 20 to 25 minutes until golden brown on top. Insert toothpick into the center of muffins to test for doneness (the toothpick will come out clean when muffins are cooked through).
