Ingredients
  

  • 4 eggs
  • 1/2 cup applesauce
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 cup coconut flour
  • 2 tablespoons cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 4 tablespoons coconut oil
  • 1 tablespoon honey

Equipment

  • Baking Sheet
  • Blender
  • Oven

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F. This step is crucial to ensure your muffins bake evenly. You want that warm oven ready to create a beautiful rise in the muffins.
  2. Prepare your muffin tin by spraying it with cooking spray or lining it with paper liners. This will prevent the muffins from sticking, making it easy to pop them out when they’re done baking.
  3. In a blender, combine all the ingredients: eggs, applesauce, pumpkin puree, coconut flour, cinnamon, ground cloves, ground ginger, ground nutmeg, sea salt, baking soda, vanilla, coconut oil, and honey. This method helps blend everything smoothly and ensures all the flavors are well incorporated.
  4. Blend on low speed until just combined. Avoid over-blending; you want to mix just until the ingredients are incorporated and your batter is smooth.
  5. Carefully divide the muffin batter evenly among the 8 muffin tins. You want to fill each tin to about three-quarters full for the best rise and shape.
  6. Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes. Keep an eye on them to ensure they don't overbake. You’ll know they’re done when the tops are firm, and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  7. Once baked, remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for a few minutes. This helps them settle and makes them easier to remove.
  8. After cooling slightly, gently remove the muffins from the tin and let them cool completely on a wire rack. This step is important to avoid sogginess.
  9. Enjoy your freshly baked muffins warm or store them for later. They taste delicious straight out of the oven!
