Apple Cider Donut Muffins (egg-free, dairy-free, nut-free)

We are finally in September…so bring on Fall! I am SO ready for sweaters, cold weather, holiday meals, and apple cider. This recipe for Apple Cider Donut Muffins is the perfect way to ring in the fall season.

As I write this, I am half watching the Bachelor in Paradise finale, but just started to hear a funny sound. I turned down the tv volume. Then turned off the air conditioner (it is still 85 degrees here in Orange County, so no cold weather for us Californians yet). I can still hear something, so I peek my head out the window and can you believe, it’s pouring rain! It’s like the clouds knew that I was writing a fall blog post and needed a little rain to make it feel more authentic.

Anywho, back to the recipe. This is a new recipe, and I have to say, I was pleasantly surprised with the outcome. As most people with egg allergies know, not all egg substitutes translate very well.

Fortunately, the egg substitute worked REALLY well in this recipe.

Like all of my recipes, I make sure that they are simple enough, and do not require any ingredients that most people would not have already in their kitchen.

If you saw my post on Instagram – here is the answer to the question. The muffin on the right is baked with this recipe, which means NO EGG! The muffin on the left was baked with egg. Who says people with food allergies have to miss out??

Please comment below with any feedback, suggestions, or just to say hello! Enjoy!

      The egg replacement is for 1 egg, so you can just use 1 egg instead!

    Can this be done gluten free as well?

      I personally have not tried the recipe with a gluten free substitute, but I know that moms had commented on a Facebook group that they were able to, and it came out great!

    Can’t wait to try this! We are going apple picking soon and would love to throw some real apples in it too. Do you think they will cook up okay using some apples in it as well. We are pn/tn/egg allergy so I’m always looking for recipes that my son can enjoy. Thanks again!
