This recipe is taken from the WW New Complete Cookbook, and it's one of my favorite recipes in the book! We make several batches of these every fall. Ingredients:
1/3 cup all-purpose flour |
1/3 cup whole wheat flour |
1/3 cup sugar |
1/4 cup tbsps raisins |
2 tablespoons raisins |
3 tablespoons wheat germ |
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 cup pumpkin puree |
1 egg |
1/4 cup orange juice |
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice |
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract |
2 tablespoons chopped walnuts |
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 6-cup muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray, then sprinkle lightly with flour.
2. In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, whole-wheat flour, sugar, raisins, wheat germ, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a medium bowl, whisk the pumpkin puree, egg, orange juice, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla. Add to the flour mixture; stir until just combined. (Do not over mix).
3. Spoon the batter into the cups, filling each about 2/3 full; sprinkle with the walnuts. Bake until a toothpick inserted in a muffin comes out clean, 25-30 minutes. Cool in the pan on a rack 10 minutes; remove and serve warm.
