Better-For-You Muffins
Servings: 12

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups canned pumpkin (from a 15-ounce can)
  • 1/2 cup oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups flour
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Make It

1. Heat the oven to 350 degrees and grease the bottom only of 12 muffin cups.

2. In a large bowl, combine the pumpkin, oil, eggs, vanilla, and brown sugar. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add the flour mixture to the pumpkin mix, stirring until just combined.

3. Pour the batter into the muffin cups and bake until the muffins are slightly puffed and golden brown, about 25 minutes. Cool in the pan on a wire rack.
