Apple Walnut Muffins Low Fat & Low Sugar Version image

All the glory of muffins, using apple butter for part of the fat and replacing the white sugar with Splenda granular. Another Graham Kerr speciality. (I've also posted recipe #204126 which he used in this recipe.)

Time 40m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup whole wheat pastry flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
3/4 cup rolled oats, not quick cooking
1/3 cup Splenda granular
3 tablespoons walnuts, chopped
1 egg
1 cup low-fat buttermilk
2 tablespoons apple butter (see Sugar Free Crock Pot Apple Butter)
2 tablespoons light olive oil
1 cup cooking apple, grated, unpeeled (Rome, Jonagold, Granny Smith)
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon walnuts, chopped
1 tablespoon rolled oats

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400ºF. Grease 12 muffin tin cups or line with cupcake papers.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flours, baking powder & soda, salt, cinnamon, oats, Splenda and walnuts.
  • Thoroughly mix the egg, buttermilk, apple butter, oil & grated apple. Pour into dry ingredients and stir gently just till mixed. A few lumps are OK; overmixing will make the muffins tough.
  • Divide the batter among the prepared muffin cups. Combine topping ingredients & scatter over muffin tops.
  • Bake for 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. (They don't rise very much; that's okay.).
  • Remove from oven & cool on a rack (if you're "muffin tipper", now's the time to do it ;-) for 10 minutes. Remove from pan & finish cooling on rack.

These muffins are a bit too sweet for my taste. I would reduce the amount of sugar in the recipe next time.

I found these muffins to be a bit dry. I think I would add an extra egg or some yogurt to the batter next time.
