How to Make Applesauce Raisin Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease well.
  2. In a large bowl, lightly beat 2 large eggs.
  3. Add 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/3 cup vegetable oil, and 1 cup applesauce. Beat until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional).
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Stir in 1 cup raisins.
  7. Fill the prepared muffin cups about 2/3 full.
  8. Sprinkle each muffin with 1 teaspoon of brown sugar.
  9. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  10. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
