Applesauce puffs are perfect for breakfast or brunch. Start with a biscuit mix for easy preparation. They won't last long at your house!
Applesauce Puffs are muffins rolled in butter and cinnamon sugar. Enough said, right? They are like eating a cinnamon sugar donut. (However they are much easier to make!)
I made these one night while we had our breakfast for dinner. I wanted to try something new (as usual). The applesauce puffs are a lot like the popular French Puffs I make except these start with a biscuit mix. You also add applesauce to the mix instead of having to add a lot of oil so that is a healthier.
Of course, you may loose some of that benefit when you roll the muffin in butter and cinnamon sugar. Shh, don't tell. ;-)
When I made these, I knew they would be a hit with the family. I didn't realize they would be wiped out in one sitting. Well, actually we had one left. Ryan was working on his MTA at a friend's house and when he got home he devoured the last one.
Oh, well. Next time, I guess I should make a double batch.
Applesauce Puffs Are Easy To Make
As I said, it starts with a biscuit mix. You can use a homemade mix or a store bought. I used a store bought mix because I happened to have some in my pantry. Why, I'm really not sure, but I went with it.
There aren't very many ingredients and you can certainly substitute the milk for almond milk.
Try making them. Actually, this would be a great recipe for your children to try their hand in the kitchen! These muffins were moist, flavorful and became a family favorite. You can use a regular sized muffin pan like this one or a mini muffin pan (which, by the way, this one holds 24 muffins. Brilliant!).

I've been making this recipe for at least a year. My family cannot get enough. I use GF for my grandson who can't have gluten products. We all enjoy it, even with GF mix. When l take this recipe out, it is always requested for me to make "more" next time.

Failed to say, l use a mini muffin tin. Seems to make them more moist.

"There aren't very many ingredients and you can certainly substitute the milk for almond milk."
You've got this backward. The original ingredient is substituted WITH the replacement, OR the replacement is substituted FOR the original.
"You can substitute almond milk FOR the milk" OR "You can substitute the milk WITH almond milk."
HTH.
