Categories     Breakfast     Snack

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 medium apples (peeled, cored and grated)
300 g self-raising flour
130 g golden caster sugar (or granulated sugar)
1 tsp cinnamon
200 g dates (pitted and chopped )
80 g raisins
150 g granola
125 ml extra virgin olive oil
180 ml milk
60 ml buttermilk (see notes for the alternative)
2 large eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 180 C (160 C fan). Line up the 12-hole muffin tin or 6- hole jumbo muffin tin with paper cases (if using jumbo tin, tulip-style cases will work really well). Prepare your apples and once grated, set aside. Place the flour, sugar, cinnamon, dates, raisins and 3/4 of the granola in a large bowl and mix to combine.
  • In a small jug or a bowl, mix together olive oil, milk, buttermilk or kefir, eggs and vanilla. Pour the mixture into the dry ingredients and add grated apples (if you have lots of juice from the apples, try to drain some of it before adding them to the mix). Using a spoon or spatula, mix the ingredients to combine. The batter is ready to use, but you can also rest it for 45min- 1 hour, if you'd like, this will produce slightly taller muffins.
  • Divide the mixture into prepared muffin tin, then sprinkle on top with the remaining granola. Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown, or until inserted in the middle skewer comes out clean. Enjoy!
