Strawberry Muffins

I am so happy that strawberries are here!  I bought some just to eat, and they are so good that I had to go buy more for muffins and to make some jam.  These are perfect on a weekend morning, fresh out of the oven, topped with a bit of maple syrup and dash of powdered sugar...











What you will need...
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup applesauce, unsweetened  
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla
  • 4 tbsp oil (I use vegetable)
  • 2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 3 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 to 1 1/2 cups strawberries (I like lots!)
Mix milk, applesauce, egg, vanilla, and oil in a bowl.  Add the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.  Mix until well blended.  Stir in the berries.  Use an ice cream scoop to fill a nonstick muffin pan.  Bake at 400* for 20 to 25 minutes, or until a tooth pick comes out clean.  Let set just a couple minutes and then carefully transfer to cooling rack.  After cooled, store covered in refrigerator to keep about 1 week.  Enjoy!

How many can eat...made about 15 muffins.
