Whole Wheat Blueberry Muffins



1 Egg
1/2 cup Milk
1/2 cup Applesauce
1 1/2 cup Whole Wheat Flour
1/2 cup Honey
2 teaspoons Baking Powder
1/2 teaspoon Salt
1 cup Fresh Blueberries








Mmmmm, these muffins make for a perfect, healthy snack with a dab of butter or a cup of coffee. Also, the recipe reveals the ultimate secret to low-fat baking: Applesauce. You can substitute applesauce for oil or shortening in almost any baking recipe you find and it not only makes the result a little healthier but also more moist and sweet. For these muffins, first beat the egg together with the applesauce and milk. Then, mix in all the rest of the ingredients, blueberries last. The batter should remain lumpy, don't mix it too much or it will thicken more than you want. This recipe makes 12 medium-size muffins and should be baked at 400 degrees for 15 minutes or until golden-brown. Also, if you would rather make them more of a dessert item, use chocolate chips instead of blueberries. Enjoy!
