Ingredient Notes
- Applesauce: Any store-bought jar of applesauce or homemade applesauce works! Unsweetened applesauce is recommended but you could also use sweetened applesauce just note the muffins will be sweeter and have more added sugar.
- Maple Syrup: Maple syrup is best here for flavour and consistency though you could also use agave syrup or honey.
- Coconut Oil: Can be substituted with olive oil or melted vegan butter. I have not tested these muffins without oil. These Healthy Vegan Blueberry Muffins and Vegan Apple Oat Protein Muffins are oil-free.
