These sugar-free berry muffins are made with a mix of frozen berries and sweetened with maple syrup. They are perfect for breakfast or a little pick-me-up afternoon snack.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners (I love parchment paper ones; they peel off easily).
In a small bowl, combine the milk and apple cider vinegar. Let it sit for a few minutes while you prep the rest.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Add the milk mixture, maple syrup, vanilla, oil, and apple sauce. Stir until just combined — don’t overmix!
Gently fold in the berries. Be careful not to crush them too much.
Divide the batter evenly between the 12 muffin cups.
Bake for 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let them cool on a wire rack — they are even better once cooled.
Notes
Buy the best flour you find. I buy unbleached and whole wheat. Search for a baking powder without aluminum; it is always better and fewer chemicals in our food.
