Versatile Brown Sugar Muffins

Versatile Brown Sugar Muffins

1/2 c. butter

1 c. brown sugar

1 egg

2 c. flour

1 c. milk

1 t. baking soda

1/2 t. salt

1 1/2 t. vanilla

3/4 c. applesauce

1 c. oatmeal

Place all ingredients in mixer bowl.  Mix to combine dry ingredients with the wet, making sure not to over mix.  Pour batter into 16 muffin tin cups that have been sprayed with cooking spray.  Bake at 350 for 15, or until a toothpick comes out clean.  Cool 5 minutes and then remove from muffin tin and place on a cooking rack.  Great served warm or cold!! 

This is a versatile recipe....I often add 2 mashed bananas in place of the applesauce and 1 c. coconut in place of the oatmeal for a great banana coconut muffin.  Can also add chopped apples, zucchini, chocolate chips, raisins, nuts, or dried fruits in place of the applesauce or oatmeal, whatever combination you like.
