Recipe | Apple & Banana Muffins


Happy Friday Ladies! I am glad it is Friday and I am looking forward to the weekend. We have a few birthdays to celebrate so I am meeting up with some friends for dinner on Saturday night, of course I leave it until the last moment to decide what to wear! As we are popping to the Mall tomorrow I think I might just have to treat myself to some new Topshop Leigh Jeans ;) Anyway! Today I thought that I would share with you a new recipe that I tried out last weekend. You'll have to excuse the picture quality as it is what I put on Instagram! 

These muffins are super easy to make and are a great choice for breakfast or a snack on the go. You could even freeze half of the batch so you can enjoy them for longer! 

Ingredients
  • 150g wholemeal spelt flour
  • 1 & 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 50g caster sugar (you could sub in Stevia) 
  • 100ml milk (whichever you like best!)
  • 1 egg
  • 40g coconut oil (or low fat spread) melted
  • 1 medium apple, cored & chopped
  • 1 banana mashed

Method
Preheat oven to 200 degree C/ fan 180/ gas mark 6. Sift the flour and the baking powder into a mixing bowl, then stir in the sugar. Put the milk, egg and melted coconut oil into a jag and beat together. Add to the dry ingredients with the apple and mashed banana. Stir until just combined ~ do not over mix. Spoon the mixture into a muffin tin and bake for 20-25 minutes, until the muffins are risen and golden. Cool & enjoy! 

Let me know if you make these muffins! Tone it Up girls you can substitute the flour for Perfect Fit Protein :)

  1. Ohh, these are getting made this weekend! I love banana bread, but I'm also a huge fan of wholemeal muffins, so these will definitely be my cup of tea...and probably taste pretty good with one too :)

  2. These sound yummy. Where do you buy your coconut oil from?

    1. Tesco - It's a Groovy Foods one about £7 a jar ~ Eeek! You only need a little bit in the recipes I use so it lasts a while.
