Applesauce muffins

Sharing is caring!

A quick post to share a super simple applesauce muffin recipe that is perfect for babies and toddlers.

Some of the most well known recipes on my blog are for muffins that are suitable for babies and baby led weaning.

I have had some feedback on these recipes that for some mums they either look a little like too much work, or they don’t have an electric beater to make them

I’m a mum with 4 kiddos (lol) a mum currently in lockdown with 4 munchkins, so don’t worry I get where you might be coming from on the “too much work front”

So I thought I would share an easier, simpler baby led weaning muffin

Muffins with applesauce

So that’s what we have here, a one bowl, no beater required applesauce muffin recipe! There is no need to make your own fruit or veggie puree for this recipe either

Jarred applesauce is a great little convenience food, if you keep your eyes out for an unsweetened one, where the ingredients are literally just apples (Like this one from Countdown Supermarkets) then it can be a great little base for loads of recipes

I am an ambassador for Countdown Supermarkets, this means they support my blog by gifting ingredients to help with recipe testing and creation.
