Tips:
- Use a combination of almond flour and coconut flour for a gluten-free muffin that is both light and fluffy. - Be sure to measure your flours correctly. Too much flour will result in dry muffins. - Use ripe apricots for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh apricots, you can use dried apricots that have been soaked in warm water until softened. - Be sure to drain the apricots thoroughly before adding them to the batter. Excess moisture will make the muffins gummy. - For a streusel topping that is both crunchy and flavorful, use a combination of almond flour, butter, and brown sugar. - Be sure to spread the streusel topping evenly over the muffin batter before baking. - Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Over-baking will dry out the muffins. - Let the muffins cool completely before serving. This will allow the flavors to develop and the muffins to firm up.Conclusion:
These gluten-free apricot muffins with almond streusel topping are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. They are perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. With their moist texture, sweet apricot filling, and crunchy streusel topping, these muffins are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
