Ingredients

1 1/2 cups all purpose flour

1 cup whole wheat flour

1 Tbsp baking powder

1/2 tsp salt (you can use up to 1 tsp if you prefer)

1/4 cup sugar (you can raise or lower this slightly, depending on how sweet you like things)

1 large egg

3/4 cup milk

1/2 cup, or 1 snack size cup, unsweetened applesauce

1 very ripe banana, mashed

1 cup unsweetened frozen blueberries

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly spray 12 cup muffin pan with cooking spray.

Blend dry ingredients (flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder, salt, sugar). Mix in egg, milk, and applesauce. (The applesauce is your substitute in place of the oil that most recipes use. Unsweetened is best!) Add in banana and blueberries and gently stir just until blended.

Divide batter evenly into 12 muffin cups and bake in oven for 20 to 25 minutes. Muffins are done when toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool on rack and enjoy!

Muffins freeze beautifully. Recipe is easily doubled.

Recipe makes 12 muffins. Serving size is 1 muffin.
