This is a recipe I invented when I was craving gingerbread - and it came out great! My whole family enjoyed them and they make a good breakfast, teatime, or evening snack. The muffins are sweet and delicious. Ingredients:
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour |
1/3 cup brown sugar |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves |
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger |
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1 ener-g egg substitute |
3 tablespoons margarine, melted |
1/3 cup molasses |
1/2 cup hot water |
2 large apples |
1 tablespoon margarine, melted |
2 tablespoons brown sugar |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
2. TO MAKE APPLE BOTTOMS: Peel, core, and slice apples into 1-inch chunks.
3. Mix apple chunks, tablespoon melted margarine, and 2 tablespoons brown sugar in a bowl until apples are lightly coated.
4. Place a spoonful of apple mixture in the bottoms of a lightly greased muffin pan and set aside.
5. TO MAKE GINGERBREAD BATTER: Combine flour, brown sugar, baking soda, and spices.
6. Mix egg replacer, melted margarine, molasses, and hot water in a separate bowl, then add this mixture to the dry mixture.
7. Stir just until thoroughly combined and spoon batter over apples.
8. Bake for 25 minutes. I recommend eating these with a fork as the apples don't always stay together, but I promise they're delicious!
