Healthy Applesauce Muffins Recipe Tips

• If you want to substitute regular 100% whole wheat flour for the white wheat flour, use the same amount. If you want to substitute all-purpose white flour for the whole wheat flour, use 1 1/2 cups. (I have never tried this so if you do, please let me know how it comes out.)
• Since there is no oil or butter in the batter, make sure to spray your muffin pan well with Baker’s Joy or use paper muffin cups.
• For fresh-from-the-oven taste, warm the muffins in the microwave for 10-15 seconds before eating.
• These healthy applesauce muffins freeze well.
• The recipe can be cut in half for fewer muffins, or doubled to make more.

I’m going to be honest. Eating healthy is not one of my strengths. I definitely know HOW to do it, but many times I make the wrong choices. I believe that making the right choices depends on what is (and what is not) available in your kitchen. By making recipes like these healthy applesauce muffins, the right choices are so much easier to make. Until next time…
