Chocolate Raspberry Muffins

These  sweet and tasty Chocolate Raspberry Muffins have less sugar than traditional muffins, but you'll never miss it!

Ingredients

  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 5 tablespoons light butter, melted (I use Land O’Lakes light butter)
  • 1 cup raspberries
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 4 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Pre-heat the oven to 375 degrees. Lightly mist a 12 count standard-sized muffin tin with cooking spray and set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, add the egg, applesauce, sugar, and vanilla and stir together until well combined. Add the melted butter and stir until well combined. Add the raspberries and stir to combine.
  • In a separate mixing bowl, add the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt and stir until combined. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir together until combined into a batter.
  • Spoon the batter evenly amongst the wells in the prepared muffin tin. Bake for 18-20 minutes.
