Muffins are all-rounders: there are endless different types and they taste simply great for every occasion. These muffins contain a whole variety of nuts and, thanks to the pineapple, they also impress with a sweet freshness.
Directions
- Allow the cashew nuts to soak overnight in water.
- Mix the chia seeds with 90 ml of water and leave to soak for 30 minutes. Then puree the swollen chia seeds and process them in the food processor with the sugar and a pinch of salt. Add 100 ml of oil. Stir together the almond milk, ground nuts, flour, baking powder, 1 tsp of lemon zest and cinnamon.
- Cut the pineapple into thin slices and mix half of the pineapple into the dough. Distribute the dough into 12 muffin cases in the muffin tray and bake in a preheated oven at 180 (top/bottom heating) for approx. 35 minutes.
- Rinse off the soaked cashew nuts and puree them into a crème with 4 tbsp of maple syrup, 40 ml of walnut oil, the vanilla pulp and 1 tsp of lemon zest.
- Caramelise the walnuts with the rest of the syrup in a pan.
- Allow the muffins to cool. Fill the cashew nut crème into a piping bag with a nozzle and pipe it onto the muffins. Arrange the remaining pineapple slices and walnuts on top.
A truly nutty treat!
