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!)

BANANA APPLESAUCE MUFFINS
I made these into mini muffins and baked them a little less. They stuck to my papers so next time I will try spraying the pan instead. I was looking for a banana/apple recipe and this one is really good. The banana flavor is great. It comes from the AMA Family Health Cookbook. The picture I took was better than this...guess I...

Steps:
- *If you want to make mini muffins, bake only 10 minutes. I recommend this mini muffin pan.Whisk all liquid ingredients together. Preheat oven to 350, and line a muffin tin. In a new bowl, stir remaining ingredients very well. Pour dry into wet, and stir until just evenly mixed. Fill each liner about 2/3 of the way, leaving a little room because they will rise. Bake on the center rack, 20 minutes or until muffins have domed and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out mostly clean. Let cool. (If you loosely cover overnight on the counter or refrigerated, the liners peel off easily the next day and flavor and texture are even better.) Leftovers can be frozen if desired.

Tips:
- Choose the right bananas. Overripe bananas with plenty of brown spots on the skin are best for baking because they're naturally sweeter and more flavorful.
- Use unsweetened applesauce. This will help keep the muffins from becoming too sweet.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the muffins tough.
- Fill the muffin cups only about 2/3 full. This will allow the muffins to rise properly.
- Bake the muffins at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Conclusion:
These healthy banana applesauce muffins are a delicious and nutritious snack or breakfast option. They're easy to make and can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 2 months.
