Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup prune juice
- 1/2 cup skim milk
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup flour
- 2 cups whole wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 1 cup seedless raisins
- 1/2 cup walnuts
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Ingredients: Start by gathering all your ingredients. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Grease your muffin tins to prevent sticking.
-
Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the prune juice, skim milk, and brown sugar. Stir until the sugar is dissolved. Allow the mixture to sit for about ten minutes to let the flavors meld.
-
Prepare the Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, sift together the flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder, nutmeg, cinnamon, and salt. This will ensure even distribution of leavening agents and spices in your muffins.
-
Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: After the wet mixture has rested, add the beaten eggs to it. Gradually incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in tough muffins.
-
Add Fruits and Nuts: Gently fold in the unsweetened applesauce, seedless raisins, and chopped walnuts. The applesauce adds moisture and natural sweetness, while the raisins and walnuts provide bursts of flavor and texture.
-
Fill the Muffin Tins: Using a spoon or an ice cream scoop, evenly distribute the muffin batter into the greased muffin tins. Fill each tin about three-quarters full to allow room for the muffins to rise.
-
Bake to Perfection: Place the muffin tins in the preheated oven and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the muffins are lightly browned and springy to the touch. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean, indicating that the muffins are fully cooked.
-
Cool and Enjoy: Once baked, remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the tins for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve these delicious Low Fat Prune and Fruit Muffins warm or at room temperature for a delightful treat any time of the day!
