Making eggless mocha muffins recipe:
- Dissolve the coffee granules into warm milk. Use microwave or just warm up the milk on stove top, do not boil.
- Add instant coffee and stir. Keep aside to cool down.
- Meantime prepare other ingredients for muffin.
- Take flours (all purpose and whole wheat), baking soda, baking powder, cocoa powder and salt in a bowl.
- Whisk it well, if cocoa powder has too many lumps, sift the mixture. Keep it aside.
- Take oil and brown sugar in bigger bowl. Whisk it well; it will be sand like texture.
- Add applesauce. Beat it well. Instead of applesauce you can use yogurt.
- By this time dissolved coffee is cooled down. add that here. Beat it again.
- Add dry flour mixture. Fold it in, half way through I switched to spatula, so it won't be over beaten.
- Then add chocolate chips and nuts of your choice. I have used white chocolate chunks and chopped almonds. Fold them in.
- Divide the batter into prepared muffins tray.
- Bake into pre-heated oven for 18-20 minutes.
- Remove it to the oven and let muffins cool into the pan for 5 minutes.
- Then remove it to a cooling rack to cool down completely.
Notes
** Applesauce – I have used store bought applesauce. But you can use homemade too. Let’s quickly go through how to make applesauce at home: peel, core and cut 3 medium apples. Cook them with 6 tablespoons of water on low heat till cooked (about 20 minutes). Mash it with potato masher until it gets smooth. this will give you about 1 to 1 ½ cups of applesauce.
