Preheat oven to 350F.
In a large bowl, mix together the eggs, Greek yogurt, coconut sugar, coconut oil, grated apples, and vanilla.
Add in the almond flour, oat flour, cinnamon, salt, baking powder and baking soda and combine.
Pour the batter into a 12-cup silicone muffin tray.
Sprinkle the tops with maple sugar.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the muffins reach in internal temperature of 205F (we use a handheld baking thermometer).
In a small saucepan on low heat, add your fruit juice, coconut sugar, and agar agar powder until dissolved. Simmer for 5 minutes.
Repeat the process with another juice if you want the gummies multi-colored. We used tart cherry juice for the red. Take 2 different teaspoons and simultaneously pout the 2 mixtures into a gummy mold. Let it store in the fridge for 20 minutes.
Spoon your frosting into a small bowl and mix in the plant-based color. Take your cupcakes and frost them with your frosting. Using a skewer, poke a hole in the middle of the cupcake and insert your gummy. Add a pretzel on top as a stem and a plant-based sour gummy as a leaf. Enjoy!
