PUMPKIN MUFFINS FOR THE HEALTH CONSCIOUS :)
For all you health nuts...here is a healthy recipe for pumpkin muffins. Well, almost healthy I could not resist throwing in some chocolate chips!!!!
Healthy Pumpkin Muffins
1 2/3 cup whole wheat flour (I prefer white wheat and ground fresh)
1 - 2 tbsp. flax
1 1/2 cups oatmeal
1 tbsp pumpkin pie spice
1 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
In a medium size bowl, whisk these ingredients together until well blended.
3/4 cup agave (a healthy alternative to sugar and can be found in most grocery stores)
2 large eggs
1 cup canned pumpkin
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 cup chocolate chips (the darker the chips the healthy the muffin) I still like my milk chocolate!!!!
In another medium size bowl mix these wet ingredients together until well blended. Fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients just until mixed. Do not over stir. Bake muffins in a 350 degree oven for 20-25 minutes.
