So far this fall, I have been focusing on pumpkin spice for the treats I have developed. That doesn’t mean that apples are less dear to me than pumpkin. No way! Apples are one of my favorite things about this season!
I grew up in northern Pennsylvania where apples were an important crop. My family wasn’t in the apple business, but we had our share of apple trees. We had red delicious, yellow delicious, Rome, cortland and several other varieties.
Seemingly wild apple trees also grew on the property lines or the edge of the woods. We had no idea what varieties these apples were. Instead, we named them for their location–horse pasture apples, for example.
We used our apples in a variety of ways. My mother made loads of applesauce and apple butter to preserve them through the winter. She made apple pies, apple fritters, and apple dumplings.
My father even made a cider press to use up the apples that weren’t pretty enough for other uses. How I loved watching him turn the crank and filling my glass straight from the press. Nothing beats freshly squeezed cider!
My ponies loved apple season as well. We gave them apple peelings and the leftover squeezed out apples as a special treat. Not too many, though. Too many apples can make a pony sick.
The problem with apples is that, like most fruits, they have too many carbs to eat in the quantity I did when I was a kid. That doesn’t mean I don’t eat apples at all! I love eating treats that have just enough apple to give them huge apple flavor, but not enough to add a significant number of carbs. One of my favorites is our recipe forLow-Carb Apple Pastries.
Now, I know some of you are thinking that you haven’t seen apples on the list of “ketogenic foods”. I agree that you can’t eat six apples and stay in ketosis. However, it is quite likely that the tiny amount of apple in one of these muffins will allow most people to stay in their macros, and in ketosis.
I think that it is important to eat a variety of foods, not just to round out you nutritional intake, but also to keep food from being boring. Being bored leads to dissatisfaction. Dissatisfaction can lead to cheating.
If it is important to you to not eat apples, you can still enjoy these muffins. You could leave the apple out and have cinnamon muffins, or you could add a teaspoon of apple flavoring instead of the apple. Do what works for you.
I love these Low-Carb Cinnamon Apple Spice Muffins with real apple, though. The flavor of ripe juicy apples is complemented by a burst of sweet, spicy cinnamon. These muffins make a delicious breakfast or snack. Grab one on the go when you don’t have time to sit down. Enjoy!

How much monk fruit would I use And would I add any other sweetener?
Reply
Annissa Slusher on October 15, 2021 at 10:37 am
It depends on what blend you are using. Pure monk fruit will greatly change the texture of the muffins, so I wouldn’t recommend it. If you are using a blend that substitutes equally for sugar, the safest thing to do is substitute it equally for the Pyure I use in the recipe, but expect the muffins to be less sweet.Sweetener changes can be risky in baked goods.

Just made this recipe, but baked into a loaf instead of muffins. It came out very nicely and so tasty! I added a little nutmeg and a dollop of unsweetened applesauce. I didn’t see the comment about doubling the amount of sweetener when using Swerve which is what I had on hand, until after it was in the oven. It still came out great. I will be sure to try it with the extra sweetener next time.

These are easy to make and incredibly delicious! I made a tin of regular apple cinnamon muffins for a friend and I knew I would be too weak willed to abstain from eating a couple so I decided to make these low carb muffins for myself! It was totally worth the effort! If I were to have eaten 2 of the regular muffins I would have had 40 grams of net carbs. And because I had these delicious muffins I only had 8 grams of net carbs.

Can you substitute plain erythritol (Swerve) for the stevia-erythritol blend and if so, how would that change the measurement?
Reply
Harper and Annissa Slusher on January 17, 2018 at 5:22 pm
Megan,
I think it would be fine to substitute Swerve. I believe the sweetness of Swerve is equal to sugar while Pyure is twice as sweet as sugar. Therefore, you will need to use double the amount of sweetener if you use Swerve.
Good luck!

Can we substitute with Splenda and if so what would the measurements be??
Reply
Harper and Annissa Slusher on January 22, 2018 at 8:55 am
There are different blends of Splenda. Check the packaging of what you have for a conversion chart. If it tells you that it measures like sugar, the you will need to double the amount of sweetener in this recipe. If the conversion says that you use half as much as you use for sugar, then you will use the same amount as I have listed. Good luck and I hope you enjoy the muffins!

Maria,
I really don’t know. The sweetener adds bulk to the recipe, so my guess is that you may need to change the quantities a bit and the final product will be different. I really don’t have experience making the recipe without any sweetener. Good luck!

Also wanted to note that since I didn’t have the erythritol/stevia blend, I used the same quantity of erythritol along with about 8 drops of liquid sucralose sweetener.

Can I use stevia in the raw for this? And if so would it be the same amount?
Reply
Harper and Annissa Slusher on May 5, 2018 at 8:59 am
Hi Tiffany,
I think you are referring to their baking mix. Their baking mix is half as sweet as Pyure, so you would need to use twice as much and I suspect that they will turn out fine.
If you are referring to the type in the jar, This is supposed to have the same sweetness equivalency as Pyure, so you could simply substitute at a 1:1 ratio.
If you’re referring to the more intense, pure stevia products, you would need to use much less. Using one of these products will affect the bulk of the dry ingredients, so the recipe may not turn out well.

I made these today. I’ve been frustrated with my ability to make actual delicious Keto friendly foods. Most of what I make is tolerable, at best. I decided to give these a whirl today. I did have to make substitutions but that was just b/c if my items on hand. I used coconut milk, swerve and didn’t use salt b/c I didn’t have any. I also mis-read where you’re supposed to add the coconut oil to dry ingredients. I know apples aren’t Keto friendly but I needed them in my recipe! I popped them in the oven and hoped for the best. I definitely didn’t utilize all of the wait time and scooped them right out, put kerrygold butter on and OH MY HEAVEN!!! They were amazing. Thank you!!!!

Meryl on July 27, 2018 at 3:02 pm
I just made these muffins – I followed everything in the recipe using the butter option. Part way through mixing I realized I was out of apples so I put in a peach instead.
I was worried about using so many ingredients and not being sure how it was going to come out. I’ve wasted a lot of pricey ingredients recently looking for low carb options for breakfast.
These were absolutely the best muffins. If heaven had a taste, it would taste like these muffins.
First, it passed the “look” test. These look like muffins. Not like eggs in a muffin costume.
Then it passed the “texture” test. When you open these muffins up, they have that muffin texture that makes you want to put butter or peach jam on them. Yum.
At that point I would have been devastated if they tasted awful, but they were not only good, they were really really good. Good enough that I see no reason to make regular muffins ever again. This will be my muffin recipe to turn to whether I’m eating low carb, or eating everything in arms reach.Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!

These were excellent! I did make several substitutions due to what I had on-hand, but they still turned out delicious! I sweetened with 1/3 cup of stevia blend and 1/4 cup coconut sugar because I don’t like the stevia aftertaste. Even tho I used less sweetener, they are still plenty sweet. I also added nutmeg and allspice with the cinnamon; subbed 1/2 cup of unsweetened applesauce for the apple; and used only 3 eggs. Oh, and pecans. I always add nuts to my fruit muffins. Didn’t wait til they cooled! These will make a great weekday breakfast.

I’ve made these twice now. I substituted the apples for peaches (because peach season). The first time I made a crumble topping with almond flour, coconut flour, swerve and butter and it was like coffee cake! The second time, I added a cream cheese swirl by mixing cream cheese, Swerve and egg, and layering with the batter in the muffin tins. I used butter the first time and the second with coconut oil and both were perfect. I put them in baggies for an easy breakfast to grab as I’m leaving for work. They are delicious warmed up for 20 seconds with a bit of butter.

Overall I thought they were quite good although there was a slight bitter taste and I’m not sure why. I used the specified ingredients. I would prefer a tad bit sweeter but that might have been because I may not have used enough apple–thought I did but more would have been better. Next time I’ll up the sweetener a tad and increase the apple and see if that makes a difference.
Reply
Annissa on January 31, 2019 at 2:28 pm
Evelyn,
Just out of curiosity, what sweetener did you use? Some sweeteners are not as sweet as others and that may be why they weren’t as sweet as you like. Pyure is twice as sweet as sugar, so if you subbed one that is the same sweetness level as sugar and didn’t double the amount, it wouldn’t be as sweet. That being said, some people do like their foods sweeter than others.
-AnnissaReply
Judy Davidson on April 5, 2019 at 6:23 pm
Are you sure about doubling the sweetener I doubled it and had a complete mess, There was not enough liquid to even mix it all together. I added more milk then water and it came out horrible even added more apples. It’s in the oven baking now , but I think I just wasted a lot of expensive ingredients for nothing 1

Annissa on April 6, 2019 at 12:19 pm
Oh no!
It’s really hard to predict what will happen when making substitutions. I can’t possibly test every recipe with each sweetener. I try to use the same sweetener in most of my recipes so my followers keep it on hand. I try my best to help people when making substitutions, but sometimes things go awry. How were they after baking?Reply
Marlene on January 31, 2019 at 4:23 pm
Tried these, I followed the instructions, but the batter was more like a crumble. Can I check the ingredient amount: 21/2 cups of flour to only 1/4 cup of almond milk seems like too little liquid. Is that correct?

These are good. I was able to bake in a pan for 35 mins as a loaf. The only thing I found is I find the after taste of Stevia awful and erythritol is always a better substitute.
Annissa Slusher on January 7, 2020 at 10:41 pm
Personally, I’m not a fan of the cooling effect or the lack of solubility of erythritol. Everyone has their own sweetener preferences. I typically use Pyure stevia/erythritol blend in my recipes because that’s what I prefer.

What could I use in place of the almond milk?

Any other milk with a similar consistency should work–Oat milk, coconut milk (the kind in the carton), cashew milk, etc. should all work.

I used Lakanto Monkfruit Classic (monk fruit and erythritol) instead of a stevia/erythritol blend and they are wonderful! Love the addition of apple! Thanks for the recipe.
