Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup cake flour*
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 1 1/2 cups blueberries
- zest of 1 orange
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Spray muffin tins with cooking spray or line with cupcake liners, and set aside.
- Add butter and sugar to mixing bowl and beat on medium-high speed until smooth.
- Add eggs, 1 at a time, mixing until combined with each, then mix in vanilla extract and orange zest.
- In a separate bowl, combine flour, salt, and baking powder. With the mixer on low speed, add the flour mixture to the wet mixture. Mix until just combined.
- Mix in the applesauce, and then stir in the blueberries.
- Divide among muffin tins, filling only about 2/3rds full. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. (If making mini muffins, bake for 15-18 minutes.) Remove and allow to cool, then enjoy!
Notes
*You can use all-purpose flour if you don't have cake flour (so 2 cups of AP flour, instead of 1 cup of each AP and cake flours.)
