🥮 Healthy And Quick Cinnamon Streusel Muffin Recipe

Traditional muffins are filled with oil, but I replaced the oil with applesauce. Trust me, you won't miss the oil. The addition of protein powder makes these perfectly balanced, with just the right amount of protein to start your day. Studies have also shown that cinnamon helps balance blood sugar levels.

If you want to make some of my other muffin recipes, you can try my orange almond muffins(gluten-free). These are also easy to make and delicious.

You can also mix up all the dry ingredients for this gluten-free muffin mix and store them for later. Simply add your wet ingredients, mix up, and bake. These are great muffins to freeze. Simply put it in an airtight container in the freezer. 

These cinnamon gluten free muffins are also an easy hostess gift. I would find a cute glass jar and fill up the dry ingredients. Decorate the jar with a cute bow, and print out the recipe on a nice stock card.

🥣 Key Ingredients For Gluten-Free Cinnamon Muffins

Gluten-Free Flour

When making these gluten-free cinnamon muffins, use a quality brand of gluten-free flour. If you are not gluten-free, you can substitute any all-purpose flour. But keep in mind they won't be gluten-free muffins if you use wheat flour.

Protein Powder

To increase the protein content of this cinnamon gluten-free muffin recipe, look for a quality protein powder. I prefer a vegan protein powder.

Milk

I prefer dairy-free milk, unsweetened almond milk when I make these cinnamon muffins. However, you can substitute with any other milk you prefer, though.

Applesauce

This is a key ingredient, because it replaces oil in traditional muffin recipes. Have you tried replacing half or all your typical oil in baked cooked before? If not, try it out, because trust me, you won't miss the oils, and your muffin recipe will still come out moist and tender.

I haven't found any extra apple flavor when I add applesauce to my baked goods either. I prefer to use the unsweetened version of applesauce to have more control over any added sweeteners to my gluten-free muffin recipe.
