Background
These apple and dates banana muffins are low-sugar and low-fat so ideal for those who look after their health and waistline. You can use coconut sugar instead of muscovado sugar if preferred. These muffins go really well with morning coffee or afternoon tea.
Ingredients
- 3 large bananas
- 2 eggs, beaten
- ½ cup of dairy-free milk

- 1 large apple, grated
- 2 Tbsp of vegetable oil

- 2 Tbsp muscovado sugar
- ½ cup of chopped dates
- 1 cup of flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 180°C. Line a muffin tin with paper baskets or put 12 silicon muffin cases on a baking sheet.
- Mash the bananas with a fork. Add the eggs, oil, milk and vanilla to the bowl. Mix until well combined. Then stir in the grated apple.
- Add the flour, baking powder, sugar and cinnamon. Mix until well combined.
- Fold in the dates, then spoon the batter into the muffin cups.
