In a mixing bowl, stir together the flour and applesauce until a nice dough ball forms.
Divide the dough into 24 equal sized pieces.
Place a ball in each well of a mini muffin tin and press to flatten.
Bake the crust for 8 min or until just starting to color.
Let cool before removing from pan.
For the filling:
Peel and mash the banana in a large bowl.
