These cinnamon sugar muffins stuffed with raspberry jelly are the perfect treat for brunch, dessert, or an afternoon snack! Made with 100% whole grains and secret healthy swaps.
Preheat the oven to 425°F. Lightly grease a standard muffin tin or line with 12 muffin cups. This recipe doesn’t work quite as well as a loaf, so it’s best to stick to muffin tins.
In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter, apple sauce, and sugars with a hand mixer until smooth. Then add the eggs, egg whites, and vanilla. Mix to combine.
Stir about one-third of the flour mixture into the butter mixture until incorporated, then stir about one half of the buttermilk into the butter mixture.
Continue adding flour mixture and buttermilk until you’ve mixed in all of the flour mixture and buttermilk (so you begin and end with the flour mixture).
