Flourless Apple Cinnamon Muffins are wholesome, gluten-free muffins made with oats, bananas, apples, and cottage cheese. Naturally sweetened and warmly spiced, they’re perfect for a nutritious breakfast or snack.

Ingredients

  • 2 medium apples, peeled and finely chopped
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1 cup rolled oats (gluten-free if needed)
  • 1/2 cup cottage cheese (or Greek yogurt)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • Pinch of salt
  • Optional: 1–2 tsp honey or maple syrup

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line or grease a muffin tin.
  2. In a blender or mixing bowl, combine eggs, bananas, cottage cheese, vanilla, cinnamon, baking powder, salt, and oats. Blend or stir until smooth or slightly textured.
  3. Fold in chopped apples and optional sweetener, if using.
  4. Divide batter among muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
  5. Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  6. Cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Add nuts, dried fruit, or chocolate chips for variation.
  • Use pear instead of apple for a twist.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature, fridge, or freezer.
  • Use dairy-free yogurt to make it dairy-free.
