Ingredients
- 1 cup Yellow cornmeal
- 1 cup Whole wheat flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 1 large Egg
- 0.33 cup Unsweetened applesauce
- 2 tablespoons Granulated erythritol or stevia (sugar substitute)
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil or melted coconut oil
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it with cooking spray.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the yellow cornmeal, whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk the dry ingredients together until evenly mixed.
Step 3
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the almond milk, egg, unsweetened applesauce, granulated erythritol, and olive oil.
Step 4
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Gently stir the mixture until just combined; avoid overmixing to keep the muffins tender.
Step 5
Evenly distribute the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Step 7
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 8
Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
