Servings 12 muffins (total)
Calories 190kcal
Ingredients
- 1 cup plain yogurt I used thick creamy coconut yogurt
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup fat I used 50% melted butter+50% avocado oil
- 1½ tsp vanilla extract
- ½ cup granulated sugar I used maple sugar
- 1½ cup gluten free flour I used my flour mix
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp lemon juice or vinegar
- ⅓ tsp salt
Optional Streusel Topping
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1.5 tsp granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp ground rolled oats or gluten free flour
- 1 tsp cold butter I used non-dairy
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F
- Mix wet ingredients first, then add the dry ingredients and mix to combine.
- Add the lemon juice last, and give it one last gentle mix to activate the baking soda and powder. You should have a batter consistency similar to a cake batter.
- Fill muffin cups.
- Make the streusel: in a separate small bowl combine the cinnamon, same gluten free flour, sugar and cold butter (small cubes).
- Mix and rub the butter with your fingers with the rest of ingredients until you get small crumbs. Sprinkle on top of each muffin. Tap the tin to set.
- Bake for 30 minutes.
Streusel is optional, you can skip it if you want.
Notes
- As fat - you can use regular butter, non -dairy butter, ghee, vegan ghee, coconut oil, avocado oil - these are my "clean" options. Melt and mix as you like.
- Flour - you can use regular flour or your favorite gluten free flour mix, but you might need to adjust the amount (probably add a bit more). Since I used my whole grain gluten free flour mix, this formula tends to absorb a bit more liquid when compared to other fine starchy flours.
- Optional add-ons - mix some seeds/nuts (hemp, pumpkin, walnuts) + dried fruit (cranberry, raisins, mango, prunes) in the batter. Make your own combination.
