How to make Apple Muffins in the Thermomix:
-
Preheat the oven to 180°C / 160°C Fan . Gas Mark 4. Line a 12-hole muffin tin with cupcake liners or grease with some butter and dust with flour. Set aside.
-
Slice the apples or apples and pears into thin pieces and drizzle with the lemon juice. Set aside.
-
Insert the Butterfly whisk into the Thermomix bowl and add the egg whites.
-
Whip for 2-5 mins/speed 3.5 with the MC off. Keep a watchful eye on them so as not to overwhip. When firm peaks form, the egg white has reached its fullest volume and should not be whipped any longer.
-
In a small bowl quickly combine baking powder with the ground almonds.
-
Remove egg whites. In the mixing bowl add egg yolk, yogurt, lemon juice, lemon zest and oil as well as erythritol or xylitol and combine 20 Sec. / Speed 5. Scrape down using a spatula, add almonds and combine again 10 Sec. / Speed 5.
-
Finally fold in the whipped egg whites and the apple pieces using a spatula. Leave a few apple chunks for topping the muffins.
-
Divide the batter between the molds and place a few remaining apple pieces on top of the muffins
-
Bake the muffins in the preheated oven on the middle rack for about 20 minutes until golden brown.
