These are quick and easy and kid-friendly. You can pump up the amount of spices to make it more of a spice muffin, but you will lose the apple flavor if you do. For some reason, these turn out especially delicious with homemade applesauce, but they're also wonderful with the stuff you buy at the store.
Makes 1 dozen muffins.
Muffin:
1/2 cup applesauce
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 eggs
3 tablespoons milk
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon allspice
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
Combine applesauce, sugar, oil, eggs, and milk. In a separate bowl, mix together dry ingredients thoroughly. Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Pour into greased muffin tin. Bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes.
