GF Applesauce Muffins with Coconut Oil – no sugar added

GF applesauce muffins have a plant-based option and are safe for nut-free diets.

Applesauce muffins that are gluten free and fruit sweetened.

This recipe may look familiar because it is a version of my original Applesauce Gluten-Free Muffins.

A lot of people show interest in coconut oil and I also use it quite often myself, so I thought why not see how the flavor blends with these muffins. Sometimes I don’t care for the flavor in the final product….this time I loved it!

I like these applesauce muffins so much that I make a double batch and freeze them. They are wonderful in lunches and as snacks.

When I was put on the yeast-free diet years ago this was one of my favorite treats. And I still love them. I actually think they are even better the next day.

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator or freeze for longer storage.
