  1. Ohhhh I can't wait to make these muffins! I haven't used applesauce in my muffins so this will be something new. There are a few gallons of homemade sauce in the pantry waiting to be used. Thanks for sharing the recipe!
  2. We had these for supper recently along with lentil soup. They certainly are not very sweet and I required a dab of jam on mine! I made them with half whole wheat; half unbleached flour. The flavor was good and I think next time I will add 1/3 c. of brown sugar and a tad more applesauce. Thank you for sharing this recipe!
  3. I like the idea of the applesauce in these muffins, will make these soon, but suggest to use 1 cup whole wheat flour and 1 cup flour to increase the fiber and nutrition
