Instructions

To make the muffins:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a mini muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray.
  2. Using an electric mixer in a medium mixing bowl, beat together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg, vanilla, and applesauce until well combined.
  3. Gradually stir in the flour, baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon.
  4. Fill the muffin wells 2/3 full. Bake for 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  5. Let cool for 10 minutes before carefully removing the muffins from the tin.

Topping:

  1. Melt the butter in the microwave in a small bowl.
  2. Stir together the sugar and cinnamon in a second small bowl.
  3. Dunk each muffin quickly into the butter, just enough to coat the exterior without it having time to really soak in, and then roll in the cinnamon sugar mixture to coat.

Notes

  • Store in an airtight container that's lined with a paper towel for 3-4 days at room temperature.
