Ingredients




Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 cup unsweetened applesauce
3 tablespoons fiber (powdered fiber)
1 cup Splenda brown sugar
1 egg, beaten
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon powdered ginger

Preparation

1 Preheat oven to 375 and grease 12-cup muffin tin or fill with muffin liners 2 In a large bowl, mix together the following ingredients: flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt 3 In another bowl, whisk together melted butter, applesauce, fiber, brown sugar, egg, buttermilk, vanilla, cinnamon and ginger 4 Fold wet mixture into dry mixture and stir until just combined.  The batter will be very thick, but that is how it's supposed to be. 5 Fill muffin tins or liners; bake for about 15 - 20 minutes or until muffins are puffed up and turning golden brown on top.  You can double check by sticking a toothpick in the center of a muffin, if it comes out with nothing on it, then it is done.  Serve warm if possible (even if that means re-heating once you get to work).  ;) 6 Yield: 12 muffins
