Applesauce Muffins

Again another recipe from 1001 muffins

Applesauce muffins makes 9-10 per recipe( but i made about 12)

first lets mix the wet ingredients, oh wait preheat oven to 400 degrees make sure to place in middle rack when ready to bake.

Lightly grease or use paper baking cups as i have

now let's mix the wet ingredients, In large bowl beat 1/2 cup butter or margarine that has been at room temperature and 1/3 cup granulated sugar together until light and fluffy. Beat in 2 large  eggs ,one at a time, beating vigorously after each addiction. Stir in 1 cup unsweetened applesauce.

now the dry,

In medium bowl combine 1 cup all-purpose flour and 3/4 cup graham flour, 1 tablespoon baking powder,1/2 cup walnuts ( I used fresh cracked black walnuts), and 1/2 teaspoon salt.

combine the two ,wet and dry and mix until the dry is just moistened

spoon batter into prepared baking cups, filling each 3/4 of the way full.

Bake for 20-25 minutes or until cake tester or wooden toothpick ( or butter knife is what I use) inserted in the middle muffin of the pan comes out clean.

cool in pan on wire rack for 5-7 minutes

I know you need to contain yourself here and wait at least 5 minutes so you can handle these to eat

Serving suggestion from book is Apple butter.

It so happens, I have made some fresh apple butter

YUM!
