In reply to Jo. I recommend doing this to help prevent damage to the empty muffin tin and to add moisture to the oven.

In reply to Hannah. Hi Hannah! Without experimentation, I would hedge not a good idea, as it could mess up the consistency

Can you added chopped apples to this recipe or would that mess up the baking time/consistency?

I made these with coconut oil, maple syrup and all purpose flour. They were not overly sweet and so delish!

In reply to Simone. Thanks for sharing, Simone. Brown sugar would cause the biggest change in the texture of the muffins. The recipe accounts for liquid from the honey or maple syrup.

In reply to Simone. I used pumpkin and brown sugar because I was out of liquid sweetener. Also used pumpkin pie spice. I don’t recommend these changes. The original recipe is great, but my swaps made for bland, dense muffins.

In reply to Simone. Hi Simone! I love hearing you enjoyed the applesauce muffins. You may love using my recipe for Pumpkin Muffins, which calls for both applesauce and pumpkin puree and uses coconut oil. However, just using a bit of pumpkin to replace the applesauce will work just as well!

Made these last minute when we had company. They smelled amazing and looked wonderful. They were a hit and I really like that the muffins are a little bigger. Used refined coconut oil, but otherwise followed recipe.

I don’t quite have enough apple sauce today, so I’m going to try to substitute pumpkin purée. It’s that time of year! Really hoping they come out, as I’ll be bringing them to brunch. Thanks for this recipe!

Yum! I made Winesap applesauce yesterday... Used it in these muffins today. Wonderful! I must stop eating them!! The only modification I made was not reading the instructions that the sugar went on top ... Used a bit of Maple sugar, which went in instead of on... Lol. Thank you for this recipe! I plan to try a bit of orange or lemon zest in a future batch, maybe pecans another time. A wonderful recipe on it's own, but also seems to be a good base for additions.

I made these to go with roast pork for dinner. I'm gluten free so I swapped almond flour and GF flour for the whole wheat. I ran out of honey and used some honey, some maple syrup. Tossed in raisins and chopped walnuts. They are fantastic! So moist and flavorful!
