New apple muffin recipe

My sweet husband pruned our trees last year, which resulted in a large crop of apples this year (well, for us and our two trees worth). We don't spray so usually the worms get most of the apples and the neighbor kids get the rest. But this year, we've made applesauce, dried apples, and now apple muffins.
Yum!
So here's my new recipe. These were just right and dare I say light and well, the kids and I easily finished the 12 smallish muffins for breakfast....

The BEST Apple Cinnamon Muffins

1/2 cup rice flour
1/2 cup almond flour
1/2 cup potato starch
1/3 cup brown sugar
2 t baking powder
1/2 t baking soda
1 t cinnamon
1/4 t salt
2 egg whites
1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
1/4 cup canola oil
1/3 cup unsweetened almond milk
1 apple, peeled and grated

Combine ingredients. Put in muffin pan and bake at 350 for 12-15 minutes. These are 12 smallish muffins - they're probably 2/3 muffins.

As posted, this recipe is dairy free, gluten free and egg yolk free. If you want it to be vegan, you can use 1/2 cup (instead of 1/4 cup) unsweetened applesauce and omit the egg whites. Make sure you cook them long enough so they're not mushy!
