Kitchen Notes
From Sheela: “This recipe has significantly lessr liquid from the traditional recipe. The batter will be think but it makes the muffins a little more cake-like and counters the addition of the fruit. The applesauce can also be changed out for mashed banana for yet another fruit addition. Instead of using the Kool-aid, use 1 teaspoon of rum flavoring.”
