    List of Ingredients




    1 cup dried blueberries
    1/4 cup water
    3/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
    2/3 cup unsweetened applesauce
    1/4 cup egg substitute
    1/4 cup vegetable oil
    3/4 teaspoon salt
    1/2 teaspoon vanilla
    1 teaspoon baking soda
    1/2 cup low-fat buttermilk
    2 cups all-purpose flour
    2 teaspoons baking powder
    butter-flavored spray

    1. Combine blueberries with 1/4 cup water in a small, microwave-safe bowl. Zap blueberries in the microwave on 50% power for 2 minutes, stir, cover with plastic wrap, then set aside.
    2. Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
    3. In a large bowl, mix together 3/4 cup sugar, applesauce, egg substitute, oil, salt, vanilla, and baking soda. Add buttermilk and blend well.
    4. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour and baking powder. Add the dry ingredients to the wet, and mix well with an electric mixer.
    5. Add 1 tablespoon of sugar to the blueberries, then add them to the batter and fold by hand with as few strokes as possible.
    6. To bake the muffins, use a "Texas-size" muffin pan lined with large cups. You may also bake the muffins without the cups; just be sure to grease the pan well with cooking spray. (If you use a regular-size muffin pan, which also works fine, your cooking time will be a few minutes less, and your yield will double.) Fill the cups halfway with batter.
    7. Spray a couple of squirts of butter-flavored spray over the top of each portion of batter.
    8. Bake the muffins for 20 to 24 minutes or until brown on top (16 to 20 minutes for regular-size muffins). Remove the muffins from the oven, and allow them to cool for about 30 minutes. Then put the muffins in a sealed container or resealable plastic bag for storage. (http://www.topsecretrecipes.com)

    Makes 8 "Texas-size" muffins (or 16 regular-size muffins).
