  • Author: Garianne Gagliardi
  • Total Time: 26 min
  • Yield: 24 mini muffins 1x

Description

what you will need:

  • Piccalio Foldable Helper Tower
  • mini muffin pan
  • storage containers

Ingredients

Scale

1 cup unsweetened applesauce
2 tablespoons melted butter, slightly cooled (can use coconut oil too)
1 egg (lightly beaten)
½ cup milk (whatever milk you use / non-dairy works too)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup whole wheat flour (all-purpose you can use too)

½ cup rolled oats
¼ cup maple syrup
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
¼ teaspoon salt


Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375 F and grease a mini muffin tin well.
  • Stir together the applesauce, butter, milk, egg, and vanilla in a medium bowl.
  • Add the flour, oats, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt and gently fold together.
  • Fill prepared muffin tin to the edge of each cup. Bake for 16-20 minutes or until lightly browned around the edges and cake tester inserted into the center comes out cleanly.
  • Remove from oven and let cool on a wire rack.
  • Serve warm or at room temperature. Store in airtight container in fridge for up to 5 days!

Notes

To store let cool completely and put in airtight container for 3-5 days OR you can store in a freezer bag for up to 3 months!

If you want the option to be egg free you can sub in a “flaxegg”: 2 tbsp ground flaxseed and two tablespoons water – let sit and get thick for a couple of minutes before adding to the batter.

dairy-free and gluten-free are also both options for this recipe. Use non-dairy milk & use gluten-free flour. I have tried both and they work great.
