What you need to make Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins?
To make this recipe completely healthy and gluten-free, I used Almond Meal as base of the recipe! which means ‘no All Purpose Flour’. I know, Almond meal can be a little expensive compared to plain flour, in such case, we can substitute almond meal with gluten-free All Purpose Flour or Oat Flour. The rest of the ingredients are simple and economical to find.
- Almond Meal
- Tapioca Flour
- Apple Sauce
- Brown Sugar/Coconut Sugar
- Baking Soda
- Baking Powder
- Lemon Zest
- Lemon Juice
- Poppy Seeds
- Vanilla Extract
How to make Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins?
- Take a medium sized mixing bowl and add apple sauce, brown sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest, vanilla extract and give a quick mix with a spatula.
- To the same bowl, add almond meal, tapioca flour, baking soda, baking powder and mix everything together.
- Add poppy seeds at last and mix to combine.
- Transfer batter to muffin pan equally. Can fill batter to the edge of muffin pan as almond meal will not double in size like plain flour.
- Bake at 350F for 25-30 mins or till top turns a little brown in color!
Serve warm as it is or with drizzle of maple syrup.
