Stevia Sweetened Apple Oatmeal Muffins
Apples, oats and muffins……….make for a perfect breakfast don’t you think?
The night before Easter I decided to make these wonderfully yummy and healthy muffins to have for breakfast in the morning before heading to church. We leave super early, 8am!
These muffins bake in 20 minutes.Yeah!
When I first began my blog, my original Apple Oatmeal Muffins recipe was not sugar free. It is refined sugar and flour free, but not sugar free. I used sucanat to sweeten them which is healthier and less refined than white sugar. But I had wanted to tweak the recipe a bit and try it with stevia only.
Still just as moist and delicious as the original recipe and now completely sugar free!
- 1 cup old fashioned oats
- 1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tablespoon [url href=”https://www.iherb.com/p/5270?rcode=yaj035″ target=”_blank”]Sweetleaf Stevia powder[/url] (*see note)
- 1 cup applesauce, unsweetened
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup oil, melted butter or coconut oil
- 3/4 cup low-fat milk

- Optional: chopped nuts, granola

- In a bowl stir together the oats, flour, , cinnamon, baking soda and powder, stevia and salt.
