Yields12 Servings
Prep Time20 minsCook Time30 minsTotal Time50 mins

Dry ingredients:
 2 cups whole grain flour (whole wheat or gluten-free blend)
 1 tsp baking soda
 1 tsp baking powder
 ½ tsp cinnamon
 ¼ tsp salt
Wet ingredients:
 ½ cup coconut sugar
 ¼ cup coconut oil
 2 eggs (or 2 tbsp ground flaxseed & 6 tbsp water to make flax eggs)
 ¾ cup canned pumpkin (NOT pumpkin pie mix)
 ¾ cup yogurt (OR coconut yogurt)
 1 tsp vanilla extract
Mix-ins:
 1 large apple, finely diced (to equal 1 1/2 cups)

1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place liners in muffin tin or grease tin.

2

In a medium bowl, combine dry ingredients and mix well.

3

To heat coconut oil, I measure out the proper amount, transfer it to an oven-safe ramekin and place it in the oven while it preheats. It only needs to stay in there for 4-5 minutes and it will be perfectly melted!

4

In a large bowl, combine sugar & melted coconut oil and whisk until combined. Add remaining wet ingredients, mixing well.

5

Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients, mixing only until just combined.
Gently stir in apples.

6

Divide into muffin tins and sprinkle with a little extra cinnamon & coconut sugar. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until toothpick comes out clean. Cool for a few minutes and make sure you enjoy one warm!!!

Keeps 3-4 days in refrigerator or a few weeks in the freezer.
