Apple Spice Muffins

DATE: Thursday, September 25th, 2008

Ingredients

2 ½ cups (625ml) whole wheat flour
2 teaspoons (10ml) baking powder
2 teaspoons (10ml) baking soda
1/2 teaspoon (2.5ml) allspice
1/2 teaspoon (2.5ml) nutmeg
2 teaspoons (10ml) cinnamon
1 large pear – or apple
1 can unsweetened pineapple juice concentrate
1 tablespoon (15ml) vanilla
2 x 111g cups of Mott’s Fruitsations Apple Unsweetened fruit snack
3 eggs

Preparation

Preheat oven to 375F (190C). Butter muffin tins or use paper liners. Combine all dry ingredients
in a mixing bowl and mix well. Grate pear or apple into bowl and toss to coat. Combine thawed

pineapple concentrate, Mott’s Fruitsations Apple Unsweetened fruit snack and eggs. Pour into
the dry ingredients and quickly stir well. Fill tins 2/3-3/4 full and bake for 16-18 minutes.
NOTE: The high fruit content of this batter reacts with the baking soda to create light muffins
even though they use whole wheat flour! Serve with additional sauce to dip and a smear of
almond butter.
