Chocolate and apple muffins, vegan and gluten free

If you follow my blog, you know that most of my desserts are gluten free and non dairy, and that I’m also  experimenting with vegan recipes

I’m not going vegan and I honestly don’t do it thinking that this will save the planet, I’m simply lactose intolerant, so I don’t use milk and its derivatives, and we often run out of eggs at home, because my  kids love pasta carbonara

Regardless of the reasons, when I took the first bite of these muffins, I fell in love with the intense chocolate flavour and the softness of the apples, which melt during baking

Make the pastry case

Add all the dry ingredients (rice flour, sugar, bitter cocoa, baking powder and vanilla) in a bowl and mix.

Put the rice milk and the oil in a measuring jug and mix, add the liquid mixture to the dry mixture and whisk.

Wash and dry the apple, peel and dice it, if you prefer, you can cut slices to decorate the surface of the muffins.

Pour the mixture into 4 paper cups, bake in the air fryer at 150 ° C for 20-25 minutes, the apples make the dough more moist, always check the baking by doing the toothpick test: insert the toothpick in a muffin, if it comes out clean, the muffins are cooked.

Tips

  • If you love muffins, you should also try vegan orange chocolate muffins;
  • Muffins will remain fresh for 2-3 days stored in a vacuum container;
  • If you don’t have an air fryer you can bake the muffins in a convection oven at 180° C fo 20-25 minutes;
  • Although it may seem that all dark chocolate is vegan, in reality it is not, it may contain flavourings or anhydrous butter that do not make it so.
