Pumpkin Muffins


These muffins are yummy & pretty good for you too!




Pumpkin Muffins


1 can (15 oz.) pumpkin

4 eggs (I use Egg Beaters)

1 C. oil (I do 3/4 C. unsweetened applesauce & 1/4 C. canola oil)

2/3 C. water

2 C. sugar (I do 3/4 C. honey)

3 1/2 C. flour (I do 2 C. whole wheat flour & 1 1/2 C. oatmeal)

2 tsp. soda

1 1/2 tsp. salt (I do 3/4 tsp.)

1 tsp. cinnamon (I add a little bit more)

1 tsp. nutmeg

1/2 tsp. cloves

1/4 tsp. ginger




Mix together pumpkin, eggs, oil, water & sugar until well blended. Sift in the dry ingredients & mix until just blended. Scoop into greased muffin tins and bake at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes or until inserted toothpick comes out clean.



Makes approximately 28 muffins.



*I added some semi-sweet chocolate chips to a few of the muffins for a little treat & they were really tasty!
