Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup applesauce
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1 whole egg
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Topping

  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 375. Place the silicone mini muffin pan on a baking sheet and set aside. If you’re not using a silicone mini muffin pan, make sure you grease your pan well with with a baking spray
  • In a medium sized bowl, combine the applesauce, melted butter, whole egg, maple syrup and vanilla extract. Whisk together until evenly combined
  • In a small bowl, combine the flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Mix and then add into the bowl of the wet ingredients and mix together until combined (I also will just add all the dry ingredients individually to the bowl if I’m running low on time)
  • Using a tablespoon cookie scoop or spoon, scoop the batter into the 24 cup mini muffin pan evenly
  • Bake at 375 for 15 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes and then pop them out and set them on a wire rack
  • While the muffins are still warm, set up your topping ingredients. Put your melted butter into a small bowl and the granulated sugar and cinnamon in another small bowl. Mix the sugar and cinnamon together. Dunk a mini muffin into the melted butter and then into the cinnamon sugar mixture to coat. Repeat with all your mini muffins
  • Serve! You can store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or the in the freezer for up to 3 months. Enjoy!:)
