Apple Cinnamon Yeasty Bread Muffins! Healthy Breakfast!




I wanted to try out yeast in muffins and also reduce the butter sugar content. So i came up with this recipe. It is pretty much a sweet bread shaped into muffins:). It has a nice dense and moist texture with a heavenly cinnamon smell when warm. Of course, Vivek is not too much of a fan because he wants the butter in his muffin!. I like it because it is not as sweet, and not at all greasy on the hands :)

Ingredients:
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 apple pureed
  • 1 teaspoon butter
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
Directions:
  1. Warm the milk and add yeast to it. Mix well and let stand for 10 minutes.
  2. Add nutmeg, sugar, salt, butter, cinnamon and nutmeg and mix well.
  3. Puree the apple using a little water if needed. Add the puree to the yeast mixture.
  4. Add in the flours and knead into a soft dough.
  5. Divide the dough into small balls.
  6. Oil the muffin pan and place the balls in it.
  7. Place the muffin pan in a warm oven for about an hour. Also place a pan of boiling water in the oven.
  8. Remove the pan of water. 
  9. Mix 2 teaspoons sugar with 1 teaspoon cinnamon,
  10. Sprinkle the balls with the mixture.
  11. Bake at 350 degrees F for about 20 minutes.
  12. Cool on rack and remove the muffins from the pan!
  13. Enjoy warm with tea or as buttered snack.
