Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a standard 12-cup muffin tin and a 6-cup tin with paper liners. Sift flour, cinnamon, baking soda, salt, nutmeg, and cloves together into a medium bowl. Set aside.
- Put 8 tablespoons (1 stick) butter, the granulated sugar, and 1/2 cup brown sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Cream on medium speed until smooth, about 3 minutes. Mix in eggs, one at a time. On low speed, mix in applesauce and then flour mixture. Stir in nuts by hand.
- Divide batter among muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full. Bake until a cake tester inserted in centers comes out clean, 18 to 20 minutes. Let cool completely in tins on a wire rack.
- Meanwhile, in the clean bowl of electric mixer, mix cream cheese with remaining 8 tablespoons (1 stick) butter and 1 cup brown sugar on medium speed until smooth. Spread cream-cheese frosting on muffins.
Tips for Perfect Applesauce Multigrain Muffins:
- Use fresh, ripe apples: This will give your muffins the best flavor and texture.
- Peel and core your apples before grating them: This will remove the skin and seeds, which can make your muffins tough.
- Grate your apples using the large holes of a box grater: This will create small pieces that will distribute evenly throughout your muffins.
- Use a variety of multigrain flours: This will give your muffins a more complex flavor and texture.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can make your muffins tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Fill your muffin cups about 2/3 full: This will allow them to rise properly.
- Bake your muffins at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: Keep an eye on them so they don't overbake.
- Let your muffins cool for a few minutes before serving: This will help them to set.
Conclusion:
Applesauce multigrain muffins are a delicious and healthy snack or breakfast option. They're also easy to make and can be tailored to your own preferences. With a few simple tips, you can make perfect applesauce multigrain muffins every time.
