Apple Cinnamon Swirl Muffin

This muffin makes the perfect filling and energizing breakfast (if you eat the other half of your apple), and it’s friendly to those with dairy allergies. Enjoy with a Healing Trimmy (see pages 430–433) or Collagen Tea (page 436), both of which contain some extra protein, and you are good to go. Or, if your body loves dairy, include some Greek yogurt or Jigglegurt (page 345) on the side or on top of your muffin. Drive Thru Sue’s may want to include a squirt or two of fat-free Reddi-wip to top the muffin. Please don’t forget to eat the other half of your apple while your muffin is cooking—you need all those good carbs for an energizing breakfast. This recipe is in the "Sweet Treats - Quick Single Muffin" section of the Trim Healthy Mama Cookbook, page 280. Makes 1 large "muffin in a mug" or 2 smaller muffins in the oven.

Ingredients
  • coconut oil spray (optional)
  • 3 Tbs TH Baking Blend
  • 2 Tbs oats (old fashioned rolled oats)
  • 1/4 cup egg whites (from carton or fresh)
  • 1 Tbs unsweetened applesauce
  • 4 tsp TH Gentle Sweet
  • 1/2 tsp aluminum-free baking powder
  • 1/2 apple (peeled, cored and diced, other half retained)
  • 3/4 tsp cinnamon (ground, or apple pie spice)
Instructions
  1. 1
    Preheat the oven to 350°F if baking the muffins. Lightly coat an 8-cup muffin tin with coconut oil spray.
  2. 2
    Mix all the ingredients except the apple and cinnamon in a large coffee mug for microwaving or a small bowl if baking the muffins. Fold in the diced apple. Sprinkle the cinnamon on top of the batter, and then carefully fold the batter over the top and around it just a few times (it should not be fully mixed in).
  3. 3
    Microwave for 1 minute, 20 seconds in the mug, or divide the batter into 2 muffin holes of the muffin tin and fill the other holes with water (for a nice steaming effect). Bake for 15 minutes or until just cooked through. You can also use a large ramekin for the oven, but bake a few minutes longer.
