Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Whole wheat flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 1 cup Unsweetened applesauce
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Milk (dairy or unsweetened non-dairy)
- 0.75 cup Raisins
- 0.5 cup Chopped nuts (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it with non-stick spray.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, mix the unsweetened applesauce, eggs, vanilla extract, and milk until smooth.
Step 4
Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture, gently stirring until just combined. Do not overmix, as this may make the muffins dense.
Step 5
Fold in the raisins and, if using, the chopped nuts. Ensure they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Step 6
Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 18–20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Step 8
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Serve the muffins warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage.
