Vegan Gingerbread Muffins I haven't made muffins in a while and wanted to try a new recipe today. My boyfriend suggested making gingerbread muffins and even though I didn't have molasses, I decided to make them anyway and use maple syrup instead. There is nothing better then having the house smell like warm cinnamon and ginger on a rainy day, such as today. These muffins are extremely healthy. I just started baking with coconut sugar and I always love replacing oil with applesauce. Using almond milk also helps save calories. I have a feeling this gingerbread muffin recipe is going to become a staple breakfast recipe in my house this winter. They are so warming and good for you. They would also be great in the morning served with a little bit of Greek yogurt to add some protein to your breakfast. Vegan Gingerbread Muffins:
(recipe slightly adapted from: http://www.southerninlaw.com)

1/2 cup coconut sugar (or granulated sugar)
1/4 cup maple syrup (or molasses)
1/2 cup homemade applesauce
