Step 1
Preheat oven to 375°F and line a muffin tin with 12 paper cups.
Step 2
Whisk applesauce, egg, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt in a bowl until blended.
Step 3
Fold in flour with a few quick strokes until just combined — batter should be lumpy.
Step 4
Divide batter evenly among muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
Step 5
Bake for 14–16 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Step 6
Cool in the tin for 2 minutes, then turn out onto a rack.
