- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
- ⅓ cup honey
- ½ cup unsweetened applesauce
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and grease a muffin pan.

- In a larger bowl, mix melted butter, honey, and applesauce until combined; add egg, buttermilk, and vanilla extract while whisking until smooth.
- Gradually stir the dry mixture into the wet ingredients using a rubber spatula until just combined (it's okay if the batter is slightly lumpy).
