4.8 from 107reviews Amazing, healthy apple muffins made with maple syrup and whole wheat flour! No one will guess that this simple cinnamon apple muffin recipe is good for you, too. Recipe yields 12 muffins. INGREDIENTS
*IF YOU ARE BAKING WITH HONEY: Honey tends to brown quickly, so to avoid overdone muffins, bake muffins at 325 degrees Fahrenheit until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 23 to 25 minutes. MAKE IT VEGAN: This is really my best guess, but I think you could replace the eggs with flax “eggs” and replace the yogurt with vegan buttermilk—try mixing 1 1/2 teaspoons vinegar with a scant 1/2 cup non-dairy milk. Let it rest for 5 minutes before adding it to the other liquid ingredients. (You could also try using more applesauce in place of the yogurt but I’m not sure it’s acidic enough to counteract the bitter taste of the baking soda.) MAKE IT GLUTEN FREE: A gluten-free all-purpose flour (such as Bob’s Red Mill brand) blend should work well here. EXTRA APPLES?: Here are more apple recipes for you! Did you make this recipe?

4.7 from 43reviews These delicious raspberry muffins are moist and fluffy. They’re healthier than most, too, since they are made from whole wheat flour and naturally sweetened with honey. Recipe yields 1 dozen muffins. INGREDIENTS
MAKE IT VEGAN: You can replace the eggs with flax “eggs.” Replace the yogurt with a smaller amount of vegan buttermilk—just mix 2/3 cup non-dairy milk with 2 teaspoons vinegar. Let it rest for 5 minutes before adding it to the other liquid ingredients. Or, use 1 cup vegan yogurt. MAKE IT GLUTEN FREE: Substitute an all-purpose gluten-free flour blend for the whole wheat flour. *NOTE ON GREEK YOGURT: I’ve used a variety of fat percentages and the muffins have always turned out well. Higher fat yogurt will yield a somewhat more rich muffin. You can also substitute plain (not Greek) yogurt, but your muffins might not rise quite as high. Did you make this recipe? Please let me know how it turned out for you!

5 from 3 reviews Savory oats are a great clean-out-the-produce-drawer weeknight dinner recipe. You can make them for breakfast and brunch, too, of course. Recipe yields 4 modest servings (about 3/4 cup each), so I’d double it if you’re feeding 3 or more people, or want leftover oats for later. INGREDIENTS
MAKE IT DAIRY FREE/VEGAN: Use olive oil instead of butter, non-dairy milk (or water) and don’t add cheese. Sun-dried tomatoes or sautéed mushrooms would add some umami, and nutritional yeast could add some cheesy flavor. Don’t add eggs if you’re vegan. MAKE IT GLUTEN FREE: Use certified gluten-free steel cut oats (Bob’s Red Mill makes some) and make sure your toppings are gluten free (all of the ideas listed above are gluten free). MAKE IT EGG/NUT/SOY FREE: Don’t add anything with eggs, nuts or soy. :) Did you make this recipe? Please let me know how it turned out for you!
