How to Prepare Cinnamon Apple Crisp Muffins [Vegan]

  1. Line 18 muffin cups with paper liners.
  2. Place flour, baking powder, sugar, cinnamon and salt in a large bowl. Mix well.
  3. Cut in the shortening with a pastry cutter. I use my fingers when I get close to the end - I pinch and roll with my fingers and thumb. This gets a great mixture that resembles crumbs. Set aside.
  4. Make your chia egg and set aside.
  5. Peel and grate your apple.
  6. Add the almond milk and chia egg together.
  7. Add the liquid mixture to the dry ingredients stirring until just combined.
  8. Fold in the grated apple.
  9. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tins.
  10. Bake at 375° for 25 minutes.
  11. Take the muffins out of the oven and let cool a little bit.
  12. During this time mix the cinnamon and sugar and set aside.
  13. Melt the butter in a narrower, deeper bowl than a cereal bowl. This way you can dunk the muffin top straight down into the butter and then lift.
  14. Dip each top into the butter and then roll the top in the cinnamon mixture.
  15. Set aside, on a rack, to cool completely.
