These Dairy- and egg-free choc-apple muffins are a delightful treat that caters to those with dietary restrictions, yet they're so delicious that everyone will enjoy them. The combination of chocolate and apple provides a unique and mouthwatering flavor profile, and the recipe is simple enough for bakers of all levels to tackle.
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Line a muffin tin with paper liners, or grease with a bit of oil to prevent sticking.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 1.5 cups of all-purpose flour, 1/3 cup cocoa powder, 1 tsp baking soda, 1 tsp salt, and 1 tsp cinnamon. Whisk together until evenly mixed.
- In a separate bowl, mix together 3/4 cup sugar, 1/3 cup olive oil, 2 tbsp vinegar, and 1 tsp vanilla extract until well combined.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined. It’s okay if the batter is a bit lumpy.
- Grate the apple using a box grater. Add the grated apple to the muffin batter and gently fold it in until evenly distributed.
- Using a spoon or an ice cream scoop, divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups. Fill each cup about 3/4 full.
- Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven. Bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
- Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes. Then transfer the muffins to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once the muffins are completely cool, dust the tops with 1 tbsp of powdered sugar for a decorative touch.
Tips:
- Be sure to finely grate the apple to ensure it is evenly distributed throughout the batter and to maintain the moisture in the muffins.
- Measure the flour accurately by spooning it into the measuring cup and leveling it off with a knife to avoid dense muffins.
- Mix the dry ingredients separately from the wet ingredients first, and then combine them to avoid overmixing, which can result in tough muffins.
- You can use apple cider vinegar or white vinegar as the vinegar component in this recipe.
- Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once you've baked these tasty choc-apple muffins, you'll have a batch of treats that's perfect for serving at any gathering or for enjoying as a sweet treat at home. These muffins are not only dairy- and egg-free, but they are also packed with flavor and moistness, thanks to the inclusion of apple and olive oil. Happy baking!
