Feel free to make applesauce muffins instead of a loaf. It takes less time to bake and yields a delicious fluffy texture. To make muffins-Distribute the batter amongst a 12-count muffin pan lined with muffin liners. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until golden on top and a skewer comes out clean from the center. Let muffins cool in the pan for 10 minutes, before carefully transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
