Are these muffins vegan?

These muffins are gluten-free and dairy-free as written, but do contain an egg. I haven't tested it, but you could try your favorite egg substitute such as chia or flaxseeds, and this recipe would then be vegan.

How do I freeze muffins?

Let them cool completely on a wire rack. At that point, you can place them in a freezer bag or an airtight container for up to 2 months. Let them thaw overnight to enjoy for breakfast.

Can I grate the apples?

Yes, you can grate the apples as opposed to chopping them if you prefer that textured over chopped apples.

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F. Spray a muffin tin lightly with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
In a small pitcher or bowl, combine the milk and lemon juice. Stir to combine and set aside.
Then, in a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, apple, sugar, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and sea salt. Stir to combine.
Stir in the almond milk mixture, oil, and egg.
Then, divide the batter between the muffin wells.
Bake for 25 minutes, or until the muffins are cooked through and a toothpick or fork inserted into the center of one comes out clean.
Let the muffins cool for a few minutes in the tin. Then, remove them and serve warm or at room temperature.
