KETO "APPLE" CRUMBLE MUFFINS - with VitalZing WaterDrops

- 200g almond meal

- 2 & 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder

- a pinch of salt

- 2 eggs

- 1/4 cup of butter ( or coconut oil )

- 1/4 cup of Natvia keto sweetener

- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract

- 1 teaspoon of cinnamon

- spiced keto "apple" mix

- brown sugar crumble

Keto Apple Mix :

- 2 zucchini diced

- 1 tablespoon of cinnamon

- 1 teaspoon of powdered cloves

- 1 teaspoon of all spice

-1 teaspoon of nutmeg

- Approx 10 - 15 drops of Apple & Blackcurrant VitalZing WaterDrops

- 1/2 cup of water

Brown Sugar Crumble : 
- 1/2 cup of almond meal

- 1 tablespoon of coconut oil

- 2 tablespoons of Natvia keto sweetener

- 1 tiny drizzle of molasses

Combine the zucchini, spices and VitalZing WaterDrops in a saucepan. Slowly add in the water, ( not all at once ) as needed and cook over a hot heat. Taste and add more VitalZing WaterDrops if you want a stronger flavour. If you need to add in a bit of water do it slowly. Cook the zucchini to the texture you want it to be. I kept mine with a bit of bite to it, as it will cook more in the muffins. Set aside to add to your muffin mix.

Combine Natvia and molasses together in a small bowl to create the brown sugar.. Add in almond meal and coconut oil.

Crumble onto a baking sheet and bake for 15 mins at 180°C or until it begins to crisp up. Remove and set to the side but keep the oven on.

To make the muffins :

In a large bowl combine the flour, baking powder, Natvia, salt and vanilla. Whisk eggs and add with the melted butter ( or coconut oil ). Carefully fold in the spiced apple mix to the muffin batter.

Place in a muffin tray that has been lined with silicon muffin cups or paper cups. Sprinkle with a little brown sugar crumble on top of each muffin.

Bale for approximately 25 mins until the crumble is golden brown and the muffins have cooked through.
