  • 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce (120 g)
  • 1/3 cup honey (about 113 g)
  • 1/2 tsp fine salt
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 2 Tbsp oil (30 mL)
  • 1 large egg white
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract (5 mL)
  • 1/2 cup pareve semisweet chocolate chips OR blueberries

Equipment

  • Standard muffin pan
  • Paper liners
  • large mixing bowl

  • Rubber spatula
  • Cooling rack

Method
 

  1. Preheat. Heat the oven to 350°F / 175°C and line about 14 muffin cups.
  2. Mix the dry ingredients. Whisk whole-wheat flour, oats, salt, cinnamon, baking powder, and baking soda.
  3. Mix the wet ingredients. Whisk applesauce, honey, oil, egg white, and vanilla.
  4. Combine gently. Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture and fold only until almost combined.
  5. Choose your add-in. Fold in either 1/2 cup chocolate chips or 1/2 cup blueberries.
  6. Fill. Divide the batter among muffin cups, filling about 2/3 to 3/4 full.
  7. Bake. Bake for 15-20 minutes. Remove when the tops are set and lightly browned and a toothpick through the cake portion comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  8. Cool. Let stand in the pan 5 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack.

Notes

Variations
  • Use sugar-free chocolate chips if preferred.
  • Use frozen blueberries straight from the freezer.
  • Add 1/4 cup chopped walnuts for extra crunch.
Make Ahead, Storage & Freezing

Tip to Hand Down
Pick one direction and let it shine – chocolate chip or blueberry. The simple honey-oat batter works beautifully either way.
