Applesauce Cornbread

So, I have given you two chili recipes. What goes better with chili than cornbread. But if you are preparing a healthy chili, you don't want to go all crazy with cornbread that will negate the good nutrition of a skinny chili. I also promised you a cornbread recipe with the first chili recipe.

Here you go. This recipe makes cornbread muffins, nine to be precise. They're delightfully sweet and delicious. They go great with any chili recipe and are a sure crowd pleaser.

I also used a Truvia Baking Blend here instead of sugar because calories y'all. I'll put in the sugar equivalent as well in the ingredients list.
