2cupsapple sauce
1 1/2 cups brown sugar
1 tspvanilla
1 tspapple cider vinegar
1 tbspcinnamon
6 eggsroom temperature
3 1/2cupsGluten-Free flourMelanie's recipe can be found on her website
1 1/2tspbaking powder
1 tspbaking soda
1/4 cupcoconut oilmelted
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350F degrees
Place a dab (approximately 1/4 tsp) of coconut oil or butter in each muffin cavity of your pan and set aside. Paper muffin cups are not recommended and will result in a flatter muffin.
In a mixing bowl add applesauce, sugar, vanilla, apple cider vinegar, cinnamon, and eggs. Stir until smooth.
Add in flour, baking powder, and baking soda.
While mixer is still running, drizzle the melted coconut oil into batter. Continue mixing until well incorporated.
Place muffin pans in the oven until the coconut oil or butter is melted.
Once the oil/butter is melted, fill muffin cps with batter to 2/3 full. Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar and bake.
Bake in a 350F degree oven for 18-20 minutes or until golden brown on the edges and cooked through in the center. Insert a toothpick in the center to test doneness. Toothpick comes out mostly clean with a few crumbs when fully cooked.
Notes
Muffins will release best if you let them sit in the pan for a few minutes before removing. If they stick, use a knife inserted around the edge to loosen.
