- 2 tablespoons Ground Flaxseeds

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Meanwhile, whisk together the flaxseeds with the warm water and let sit for 10 minutes.
- Mash the bananas in a medium bowl with a fork until you get a mushy consistency. Add the wet ingredients to the bananas and mix.
- Mix dry ingredients together in a separate bowl and slowly add it to the wet mixture. Scrape down the sides of the bowl while mixing, noting that the batter will be somewhat thick.
- Pour batter into a lined cupcake pan, or you could also go without liners as long as you grease the pan or use a non-stick option.
- Bake for 17-20 minutes or until muffins are cooked throughout. Enjoy these warm or cooled, just make sure they cool down a little after taking them out of the oven.

Notes
- Variations:
- Chocolate: Use your favorite dairy-free dark chocolate, sugar-free if possible if you want these healthy banana muffins with applesauce to remain healthier/low-sugar.
- Vanilla: You can never go wrong with a bit of natural vanilla extract in muffins.
- Citrus zest: Another way to lightly ‘fragrance’ the banana applesauce muffins is to add around 1 tsp lemon/orange zest.
- Nuts: Add a handful of chopped nuts like walnuts, almonds, or pecans. For a nut-free version, use pepitas or sunflower seeds instead.
- Berries: Blueberries (like these blueberry banana muffins) or raspberries work particularly well. I recommend adding around ¼- 1/3 cup – you can use fresh or frozen (unthawed).
- Dried fruit: Alternatively, add dried fruit in the form of raisins, cranberries, blueberries, etc. Around ¼-1/3 cup.
- Whole wheat vegan banana muffins: You can substitute up to half the regular AP flour for whole wheat (swap more, and the muffins will become dense, so it’s not recommended).
