JRS22302 Recipe √ Decadent Pumpkin Muffins

I love pumpkin muffins, and I wanted to create a version with less fat and calories that still tasted good. These muffins turn out moist and full of flavor!

Ingredients

• 3 ½ cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking soda
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1 teaspoon ground allspice
• 1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
• ½ teaspoon ground cloves
• 2 cups canned pumpkin puree
• 1 ½ cups white sugar
• ½ cup light brown sugar
• ½ cup applesauce
• 1 cup fat free vanilla yogurt
• 4 egg whites
• 1 egg
• ⅓ cup water
• 1 cup raisins

Cooking Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line two 12 cup muffin pans with paper muffin liners.
2. In a medium bowl, mix the flour, baking soda, salt, baking powder, nutmeg, allspice, cinnamon, and cloves. In a large bowl, beat together the pumpkin, white sugar, brown sugar, applesauce, yogurt, egg whites, and egg. Blend the flour mixture into the sugar mixture, alternating with the water, to form a smooth batter. Fold in the raisins. Transfer to the prepared muffin pan.
3. Bake 16 to 18 minutes in the preheated oven, until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean. Cool on wire racks.
