Total time: 45 Minutes

Preheat the oven to 375?F. Lightly oil a 12 cup muffin pan or use
paper cup liners. Soak the raisins in boiling water for 5 minutes,
drain through a seive and set aside in the seive.

Mix the flour, spices & salt in a separate, large bowl.

Vegan Variation:

Beat all liquids together, including applesauce, non-dairy milk, egg
replacer, oil, sugar OR stevia if using.

Vegetarian Variation:

Beat all liquids together, including applesauce, milk, eggs, butter,
sugar OR stevia if using.

Add the wet ingredients and raisins to the dry ingredients with
minimal light mixing--a few quick strokes, don't mind lumps. Spoon
evenly into the muffin cups.

Bake for 25 minutes, middle of the oven, until lightly browned & firm
to the touch. Cool in the pan on a rack for 5 minutes. Run a knife
around the edges of the muffins & turn them out on the rack. Cool for
a few more minutes, then eat thrm!

Tips:

Use all whole grain flour if you like--the muffins will be more solid
and dense.

Another secret to the sweet moistness of these muffins, besides the
applesauce, is "plumping" the raisins in hot water before adding.

Use any combination of dried fruit: chopped dates, figs, prunes, or
apricots; dried cranberries, cherries, or currants

Applesauce raisin spice muffins freeze well. Pull them out of the
freezer the night before for a quick healthy breakfast with no
preparation time.
