Vegan Gingerbread-Apple Muffins

Why I Love This Recipe
I came upon a basic vegan muffin recipe and have been making different kinds of muffins with it ever since - this is definitely a winter favorite of mine!
Ingredients You'll Need
1 1/2 Cups all-purpose flour ( I use whole wheat & unbleached)
1 1/2 Cups pastry flour (I use whole grain or whole wheat)
3/4 tsp baking powder
3/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1tsp ground ginger
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/8 tsp cloves
1/8 tsp allspice
1 Cup walnuts, chopped

1tsp vinegar
2tsp vanilla
1 1/2 Tbl fresh ginger, minced
1 apple, peeled and chopped
Directions

pour batter into muffin pan, bake at 324 for 30-35 minutes
