White Mulberry Muffins are naturally sweetened with applesauce. They come together in one bowl and bake in under 20 minutes for a quick and healthy snack.
I first made these muffins for the car ride up to our cottage. There was some applesauce and other ingredients in the fridge that I didn’t want to go bad. I wasn’t necessarily thinking these muffins would turn out so good. Rather, I would throw some ingredients in a bowl and pray something edible would come out of the oven. Anyone feel me who is one a restricted diet?! I was so surprised at how well they turned out!
I’m also going to try and cut back on my sugar intake. Use even more natural sugars like applesauce and dates in my baking. See if it helps decrease some of the inflammation in my body. I will still eat coconut sugar, maple syrup and honey, but really limit the amount. Having healthy snacks like these no added sugar muffins on hand are a great way for me to be successful.

what are mulberries?
There are a few types of mulberries. The most common are white, red and black mulberries. If you have never had one before they taste like super sweet blackberries. I do think they have more of a delicate flavor compared to a blackberry. They lack that sour or tart taste. Once dried, the sweetness condenses and is like popping little candies into your mouth.
My favorite white mulberries are from Sun & Swell Foods. Sun & Swell Foods is a small family owned business based out of California selling organic pantry staple items online. Some of my favorite products from Sun & Swell Foods include organic almond butter, organic coconut oil, and roasted pumpkin seeds.
