Will applesauce be a good substitute for the eggs?
HI Wanda, Yes you can use applesauce for the eggs. To substitute applesauce for eggs in a recipe, use ¼ cup of unsweetened applesauce for every egg you need to replace;
Can i use salted butter instead
Hi CJ, Yes you can use salted butter instead of unsalted. If you do you could also reduce the salt to 1/8 teaspoon if you'd like. Happy baking!
Where can I purchase Swansdown Flour?
Hi Vera, Swans Down is available at many retailers across the US. Enter your zip code into our Find A Store locator to find a retailer near you. Happy baking!
Doubled the recipe and made mini loafs. I always rub the grated lemon zest into the sugar to infuse a more lemony flavor. Using a good butter, like Kerrygold, also makes a real difference. Absolutely delish!
Can lemon juice be substituted for lemon zest?
Hi Footsie, Can can add lemon juice is you do not have lemon zest to help boost the lemon flavor. Happy baking!
My first time making these muffins. Really good.
Can I use frozen blueberries?
Hi V.Wright, You can certainly use frozen blueberries. Let them defrost completely then drain any excess liquid before mashing them. Happy baking!
