APPLE DATE MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• In a lg bowl combine the whole wheat and all purpose flours, bran, baking powder, baking soda and cinnamon. Stir in the dates.
• In another bowl, beat the egg substitute with sugar and oil until well mixed, then stir in the milk and apple.
• Pour into the flour mixture and stir just enough to moisten, being careful not to overmix.
• Spoon into nonstick or paper-lined medium muffin tins, filling almost to the top.
• Bake in the preheated 375°F oven for about 20 minute or until firm to the touch.

PALEO APPLE AND DATE MUFFINS - THERMOMIX

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 180 degrees and prepare you muffin trays (I line mine with patty pans).
• Put the apples and the pitted dates into the TMX bowl and chop for 10 seconds on speed 4 (or until chopped into fine pieces).
• Scrape the chopped apples and dates out of the bowl into a separate bowl/container. (you don't need to clean the TMX bowl entirely- just get as much out as you can) You need to do this or you will continue to chop these down during the next part. They will be added again later!
• Place all remaining ingredients straight into the TMX bowl and mix for 40 seconds on speed 4-5. (**I know it's a silly point and everyone knows- but just remember to reset your scales after each ingredient addition).
• Now add back in your chopped apples and dates and mix for 1 minute on speed 1 (or until all ingredients are combined. If your ingredients aren't combined, increase the time NOT the speed until they are combined. Increasing speed will chop down apples and dates even more- we don't want that!).
• Divide mixture into your muffin trays (lined with patty pans), approximately 3/4 full as they will rise slightly, and bake in the oven for 25 minutes or until firm in the center. Allow to cool.
