Sweet Honey Applesauce Buns

From Sarah Lipoff, LilSugar

Ingredients

  1. 2 cups flour
    1/2 cup honey
    1/2 cup applesauce
    3/4 cup milk
    1/4 cup vegetable oil
    1 teaspoon baking powder
    1/2 teaspoon baking soda
    Dash of salt
    Dash of cinnamon
    Extra honey for drizzling

Directions

  1. Gather the ingredients needed for making the buns along with a medium-sized mixing bowl and measuring cups and spoons.
  2. Part of the Rosh Hashanah celebration is dipping apples in honey for a sweet new year. Invite your lil one to dip her finger in the honey for a quick taste before measuring and adding the honey to the mixing bowl along with the vegetable oil, applesauce, and milk. Now she can whisk the ingredients until incorporated.
  3. Measure and add the flour, baking powder, and baking soda, along with the dash of salt and cinnamon. Invite your tot to stir until the batter comes together.
  4. Preheat the oven to 375F and generously grease a 12-cup muffin tin.
  5. Now your child can evenly distribute the honey applesauce batter in the muffin tin. She can top the little buns with a final squeeze of honey for extra flavor.
  6. Place in the oven for 20 to 25 minutes. Let the buns cool for 10 minutes, remove from the muffin tin, and serve with dinner or as a special snack.
