Blackberry Muffins
(based on this recipe from www.recipezaar.com)
I made this SUPER healthy!
-2 cup whole wheat flour
-3 teaspoons baking powder
-1 cup blackberries (fresh or frozen)
-1/2 cup soymilk or almond milk
-1/2 cup applesauce
-1/4 cup egg whites
-2/3 cup brown sugar or agave

Mix dry ingredients (flours, baking powder, and berries) in large bowl.
Mix wet ingredients in separate bowl.
Pour wet ingredients into dry and mix until just moist. Spoon into large muffin tins and bake at 350 for 25-30 minutes, until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

Two things baking:
1)Don't replace *all* of the oil in a recipe with applesauce - your baked good will end up chewy (the ratio here was just right), and
2)Let breads cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before removing them.
Every muffin I made held up perfectly!
Have a great weekend! See you Monday with more great food and reviews!
