Applesauce Banana Muffins

Two fruits team up in these tender muffins that take advantage of a muffin mix to get you from pantry to oven in record time. Unsweetened applesauce and mashed bananas bring natural sweetness and keep the texture incredibly moist without loading up on oil or butter.

The combination creates a subtle, not-too-sweet flavor that works equally well for breakfast or an afternoon snack.

Fold in chopped walnuts for crunch and richness, or skip them if you’re packing these in school lunches.

Mix, bake, done. Sometimes the simplest recipes become the ones you make on repeat.

Pro Tips

• Use unsweetened applesauce so you can control the sugar level
• Muffin mix brands vary (check package for additional ingredients needed)
• Don’t overmix once you add the muffin mix or texture will suffer
• These stay moist for 2-3 days at room temperature in a sealed container
