3/4 c applesauce, unsweetened
1 large egg, beaten
3/4 c sugar

1/3 c cooking oil
1/2 c buttermilk
1 2/3 c all purpose flour

  • 3. Place remaining ingredients in a separate bowl and whisk well to mix. Add flour mix and nuts and fold to mix just until no flour streaks show. Do not overmix.

These muffins were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I'll add some extra applesauce next time.

Not bad, but not great either. I think I'll stick to my old applesauce muffin recipe.
