When I was trying to modify my mom's pumpkin bread recipe to cut down on the fat and cholesterol, I came up with these moist sweet muffins, explains Kathy Fannoun of Brooklyn Park, Minnesota. My kids love them...and they get a healthy dose of vitamin A from the pumpkin without even knowing it!
Ingredients:
2-1/2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup king arthur premium 100% whole wheat flour
1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1-1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 egg
3/4 cup egg substitute
1 can (15 ounces) solid-pack pumpkin
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
1/4 cup canola oil
1 cup (6 ounces) semisweet chocolate chips
Directions:
1. In a bowl, combine the first eight ingredients. In another bowl, combine egg, egg substitute, pumpkin, applesauce and oil; stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Stir in chocolate chips.
2. Coat muffin cups with cooking spray; fill two-thirds full with batter. Bake at 400° for 18-22 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks. Yield: 2 dozen.
