Muffin Day!


Since Jim leaves for his office....he's an environmental scientist for the state......at the very early morning time of 4:45 am.....way before he feels like eating and WAY before I feel like cooking, so I offer homemade muffins and tea which he eats on his hour long commute. I usually bake a large batch of muffins every 2 weeks or so, then freeze them until I pull them out in the morning for his "breakfast". The muffins usually coincide with whatever is ripe in the garden....berries, squash, carrot , apple etc........today's variety are applesauce left from last Fall that I want to use up since it looks like a great crop of apples this year on our trees.


Applesauce Muffins


1 cup butter 2 eggs

4 cups flour 2 cups unsweetened applesauce

3 tsp. cinnamon 2 tsp. baking soda

1 tsp. sea salt


Cream together sugar and butter. Stir in eggs and applesauce.

add dry ingredients and stir well. Bake in greased muffin pan 350' oven 15

minutes.


MMMMM...they're just out of the oven and smell so good. Now on to dinner fixin's!
