Applesauce Oatmeal Muffins

Today has been a chilly, lazy day. The kids and I just decided to hang out and enjoy our pjs. Braxton wanted to bake something and I thought about these warm cinnamony (sure it's a word) muffins. Braxton is really picky, but even he likes these. My Mom has been making these for as long as I can remember for Christmas morning or for breakfast for dinner. Yummy with a quiche and fruit. Enjoy!

Applesauce Oatmeal Muffins

1 1/2 C oatmeal

1 1/4 C flour

3/4 tsp cinnamon

1 tsp baking powder

3/4 tsp baking soda

1 C unsweetened applesauce

1/2 C milk (use skim for lower fat)

1/2 C packed brown sugar

2 Tb oil

1 egg white

Cinnamon Crumble Topping:

1/2 C oatmeal

2 Tb brown sugar

1/4 tsp cinnamon

2 Tb melted butter

Heat oven to 400 degrees. Line muffin tins with liners. Combine oats, flour cinnamon, baking powder and soda. Add applesauce, milk, brown sugar, oil and egg. Mix until dry ingredients are moistened. Fill muffin cups 3/4 of the way full. Combine topping ingredients; sprinkle over batter. (I doubled this, you can half it for the regular recipe.) Bake 20- 22 minutes or until deep golden brown. Serve warm- very yummy with honey butter.
