Ingredients

• 1 cup (125 grams) whole spelt, whole wheat pastry, or whole wheat flour
• ½ teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• ½ teaspoon nutmeg
• ¼ teaspoon allspice
• ¾ teaspoon baking soda
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• 1 egg
• ⅓ cup (100 grams) honey
• ¼ cup + 2 tablespoons (90ml) olive oil or canola oil
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• ¼ cup (60ml) plain yogurt or buttermilk
• 1 cup (180 grams) peeled and chopped apple, preferably from baking apples
• ⅓ cup (45 grams) whole spelt, whole wheat pastry, or whole wheat flour
• ½ cup (100 grams) unrefined brown sugar, or normal brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons (30 grams) melted butter
• 2 teaspoons cinnamon

Directions

• Preheat the oven to 350°F / 175°C. Line a muffin tin with 8 muffin liners.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients.
• In another bowl, whisk the egg. Add the honey, olive oil and vanilla. It might look a little weird at first; just keep stirring until it’s well combined, and then add the yogurt or buttermilk.
• Add the flour mix to the wet mix. It just needs to be combined, so be careful not to overmix. Then fold in the apples. Fill the liners with the batter, filling almost all the way to the top. You could get more out of these if you want to make them smaller. Just take them out a little earlier.
• Combine the streusel ingredients. If you don’t want to make the streusel, add some cinnamon sugar (1 tablespoon unrefined or brown sugar + 1 teaspoon cinnamon) to the top of the muffins. It adds a wonderful crust and a little extra sweetness.
• Bake for about 15 – 17 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
• Let the muffins cool for 5 minutes and then turn out onto a wire rack to cool.
• When the muffins are completely cooled, place them in an airtight container and store at room temperature for up to 4 days. Anything past that, store in the refrigerator.
