How to Make Applesauce Muffins W Agave Nectar

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup unsweetened applesauce, 1/2 cup agave nectar, 1 large egg, and 1/4 cup melted unsalted butter until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Fill each muffin cup about 2/3 full. Avoid overfilling to promote even rising.
  6. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Keep an eye on them as ovens vary.
  7. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy the delightful caramelized edges!
