NO-FAT BANANA APPLESAUCE MUFFINS
I got this recipe out of a Gooseberry Patch cookbook and it is one of my stand-by recipes when I am watching my calories and fat. Since I am doing just that right now, thought I would put it on the zaar for easy access and hopefully someone else likes this recipe as good as I do. (I prefer to sub 3/4 of the white flour for whole wheat and use brown sugar instead of granulated sugar. I think fresh nutmeg is the key in this!)

Tips for the Best Banana Muffins with Applesauce:
- Use overripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your muffins will be.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can make your muffins tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Use a muffin pan with a nonstick coating: This will help the muffins come out of the pan easily.
- Line the muffin pan with paper liners: This will make cleanup easier and also help the muffins hold their shape.
- Fill the muffin cups about 2/3 full: This will allow the muffins to rise properly.
- Bake the muffins at the correct temperature: The recipe calls for baking the muffins at 350 degrees Fahrenheit. If you bake them at a higher temperature, they will brown too quickly and the inside will be undercooked. If you bake them at a lower temperature, they will take longer to bake and the inside may be dry.
- Let the muffins cool completely before storing them: This will help them hold their shape and flavor.
Conclusion:
These banana muffins with applesauce are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. They are perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. With their moist and fluffy texture and sweet and tangy flavor, these muffins are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you have some overripe bananas, be sure to give this recipe a try.
