Ingredients
Base Muffin Batter:
1½ cups all-purpose flour (or gluten-free 1:1 blend)
½ cup granulated sugar (or sugar substitute like Swerve, Truvia)
1 tbsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
1 tsp ground cinnamon
½ cup unsweetened applesauce
½ cup milk (almond, skim, or your choice)
1 large egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
Cinnamon Sugar Topping:
2 tbsp granulated sugar (or sweetener)
1 tsp ground cinnamon
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a mini muffin tin or use mini muffin liners.
Step 2: Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, whisk together:
Flour
Sugar
Baking powder
Salt
Cinnamon
This helps distribute everything evenly.
Step 3: Mix Wet Ingredients
In another bowl, combine:
Applesauce
Milk
Egg
Vanilla
Whisk until smooth and creamy.
Step 4: Combine the Mixtures
Gently fold the wet mixture into the dry mixture. Mix just until combined—don’t overmix, or your muffins might turn out tough.
Step 5: Fill Muffin Cups
Spoon batter into the mini muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
Step 6: Add Topping
In a small bowl, stir together 2 tbsp sugar + 1 tsp cinnamon. Sprinkle a pinch over the top of each muffin before baking.
Step 7: Bake
Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Muffins should be slightly golden on top.
Step 8: Cool & Serve
Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.
