Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour

2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup unsweetened applesauce
1 1/2 cups peeled and chopped apples
Instructions
Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it.
Mix the dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon until well combined.
Mix the wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, beat the melted butter with sugar until smooth. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each. Stir in the vanilla extract and applesauce.
Combine: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, folding gently just until combined. Do not overmix to keep the muffins tender.
Add the apples: Fold in the chopped apples evenly throughout the batter.
Fill the cups: Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
Bake: Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until the tops are golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Cool: Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
