Bircher muesli muffins

Bircher muesli muffins are a delicious and nutritious twist on classic muffins. By incorporating muesli, you add a hearty texture and a wealth of nutrients to your breakfast or snack. These muffins are easy to make and perfect for anyone looking to enjoy a healthier treat.

Ingredients:

1/2 cup muesli
50g
2 cups self-raising flour
300g
1/2 cup brown sugar
120g
1 tsp spice mix
5g
1/2 cup greek yogurt
120g
1/4 cup milk (1% fat)
60g
1/3 cup canola oil
72g
1 egg
50g
1 apple
160g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease with cooking spray.
2. Prepare the Dry Ingredients:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the self-raising flour, muesli, brown sugar, and spice mix. Stir them together until evenly mixed.
3. Mix the Wet Ingredients:
In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, milk, canola oil, and the egg until smooth and well combined.
4. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredient mixture. Pour in the wet ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix; it’s okay if there are a few lumps.
5. Incorporate the Apple:
Gently fold in the finely chopped or grated apple until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
6. Fill the Muffin Tin:
Evenly distribute the batter among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
7. Bake the Muffins:
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
8. Cool the Muffins:
Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
9. Serve:
Enjoy your Bircher Muesli Muffins as a delightful breakfast option or a nutritious snack!

Tips:

- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: Make sure to use fresh muesli, a crisp apple, and high-quality Greek yogurt for the best results in flavor and texture.

- Do not overmix the batter: When combining wet and dry ingredients, stir just until incorporated. Overmixing can lead to dense muffins.

- Preheat your oven: Always preheat your oven to the correct temperature before baking. This ensures even cooking and the perfect rise for your muffins.

- Customize your spice mix: Feel free to experiment with your spice mix by adding cinnamon, nutmeg, or allspice to match your taste preferences.

- Test for doneness: Insert a toothpick into the center of a muffin. If it comes out clean or with a few crumbs, the muffins are done. If it is still wet, give them a few more minutes.

Bircher muesli muffins provide a delightful combination of flavors and textures. With the crunch from the muesli and the moisture from the apple and yogurt, these muffins are both satisfying and wholesome. Enjoy them fresh out of the oven or as a quick grab-and-go snack during the week.
