If you have been following me for a while, you know that this vegan baking thing is still quite the struggle for me. And adding the gluten-free criteria to it in the past few weeks certainly has not made it any easier! 🙂 Apart from these perfect vegan & gluten-free brownies, I haven’t found a lot of recipes that reliably turn out well.
Because I can’t always just make brownies and wanted to get some variety, I tried out these vegan & gluten-free apple cinnamon crumble muffins. Although I am not too impressed with the result (they can get a bit doughy), I do think they taste good and I will keep tweaking the recipe until it is perfect! Meanwhile, I wanted to share it with you to try. Let me know what you think about the muffins if you make them!
