Applesauce Muffins
Holly Hobbie
2 cups all purpose flour
3/4 cup sugar
2 t baking powder
1 t ground cinnamon
1/4 t salt
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1 cup unsweetened applesauce (I only had some of my pear sauce and it was great)
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, melted
1. Preheat oven to 375. Grease or line with cupcake liners a 12 cup muffin pan (ours made 14).
2. Combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk to blend.
3. Add the egg, applesauce and melted butter. Stir until just blended. Spoon into the prepared pan. Bake until puffed and a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean; 18-20 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and cool 5 minutes.
