Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Whole wheat flour
• 0.5 cups Almond flour
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 2 tablespoons Lemon zest
• 2 large Eggs
• 0.75 cups Unsweetened applesauce
• 0.5 cups Plain Greek yogurt
• 0.25 cups Lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon Liquid stevia

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease with cooking spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, almond flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and lemon zest. Stir until well mixed.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, applesauce, yogurt, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and liquid stevia until smooth and well blended.

Step 4

Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour the wet mixture into it. Stir gently using a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined, being careful not to overmix. The batter will be a bit thick.

Step 5

Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.

Step 6

Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Step 7

Remove from the oven and let the muffins cool in the tin for about 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 8

Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your healthy, sugar-free lemon muffins!
