INGREDIENTS

  • 1 cup white rice flour
  • 1/4 cup steel cut oats
  • 1 tablespoon flax seed
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon arrowroot powder (optional)
  • 2/3 cup plain yogurt
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 2 Gala apples - peeled, cored, and chopped
  • 1/4 cup cranberry juice

DIRECTIONS

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 6 cup large muffin pan.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together the rice flour, steel cut oats, flax seed, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and arrowroot powder. In a separate bowl, mix the yogurt, egg, butter, apples, and cranberry juice. Thoroughly mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients to form a slightly runny batter. Spoon evenly into the prepared muffin tin cups.
  3. Bake 30 minutes in the preheated oven, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

This is the first time I've rated a recipe on this site and I'm disappointed to say that I have to give this one the very big thumbs down. The muffins didn't rise, the taste was almost non-existant and they just wouldn't cook. I ended up coating them with honey, sprinkling them with a load of sugar and rebaking them just to get some sort of taste.

They were ok, needed more spices. Husband and kids wouldn't touch 'em until I put honey on top and sprinkled sugar and cinnamon on top and re-baked for a few minutes.

A little bland, but otherwise not bad. I subbed sour cream for the yogurt as I didn't have any, and used egg whites for the whole egg. I got 16 normal sized muffins out of this recipe and I'd probably make them again if I upped the spices heavily. A really good 'no sugar added' muffin, to be fair.
