Kochutensilien
- muffin baking tray
- muffin paper cups
- hand mixer or kitchen machine
- mixing bowl
- ice cream scoop (2,4 in/ 6cm diameter) or two spoons
Zutaten
- 150 g red currants (1 cup)
- 50 g low calorie butter substitute ⅓ cup
- 100 g erythritol ½ cup (if you don't have any calorie free sweetener, regular sugar will work as well)
- 2 eggs
- 70 g 3.8% fat yogurt ¼ cup
- 40 g unsweetened applesauce 2 tbsp
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 pinch of salt
- 150 g whole wheat flour 1¼ cup
- 7 g baking powder 1 tsp
Anleitungen
- Preheat the oven to 180°C / 350°F convection (200°C / 400°F top/bottom heat). Remove the stems from the currants and rinse thoroughly.
- Mix the butter and sugar in a mixing bowl until it becomes a creamy mixture. Add the eggs and beat for a few minutes with a hand mixer (or in a kitchen machine) until it becomes white creamy. Add the yogurt, applesauce, vanilla extract and salt and mix briefly. Then sieve in the flour and baking powder and mix briefly with the hand mixer until everything is combined. Carefully fold in the currants with a spatula.
- Place the paper cups on the muffin tray and divide the batter evenly between the cups using a large ice cream scoop (alternatively use two spoons).
- Bake the muffins in the oven for 20 to 25 minutes, until golden brown on top and no batter sticks to the toothpick if tested. Then cool thoroughly on a cooling rack before serving or wrapping airtight for storage.
