Instructions

1

Preheat Oven and Prep Pan

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line a 12 cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease well with cooking spray. Having your pan ready before mixing keeps the batter from sitting too long.

2

Mix Dry Ingredients

In a large bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, and cinnamon until combined. Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients to make mixing easier.

3

Combine Wet Ingredients and Mix

In a separate bowl whisk together the applesauce, brown sugar, eggs, and vegetable oil. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
