Whole Wheat Apple Muffins
"Applesauce and whole grain flour bake up very well together. The liquid from the applesauce softens the bran in the flour, and the flavors combine to make a sweet, nutty background note. Mixed up with ginger and cinnamon, nuts and raisins, these intensely apple-flavored muffins have a bit of crunch and hints of spice...."
