Notes
- Wrappers will come off easiest when muffins are completely cooled.
- Peanut Butter: feel free to substitute the peanut butter in this recipe with almond butter or tahini for a nut-free version
- Cocoa Powder: Don't have cocoa powder? Use cacao powder!
- Chocolate Chips: Use carob chips or if you don't want chocolate chips at all then try adding nuts like pecans. This would even be good with vegan marshmallows!
- Almond Flour: Don't have almond flour or are you nut-free? Try out oat flour.
- Maple Syrup: Use agave or honey if you aren't vegan.
- Applesauce: you can sub the applesauce with coconut oil.
