Sugar-Free Pumpkin Spice Muffin Recipe by The Diabetic Pastry Chef
Ingredients
1 cup white whole wheat flour
2/3 cup all-purpose flour
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice, optional
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup pure pumpkin filling
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/3 cup water
2 eggs, beaten
1 Tbsp molasses, optional
sugar substitute of your choice, equal to 1 cup sugar
pumpkin seeds, reserved for topping
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, sift together all of the dry ingredients.
In a separate medium-sized mixing bowl, combine all of the wet ingredients with a whisk.
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the wet ingredients. Whisk just until combined; do not overmix.
Scoop into 12 paper-lined muffin wells. Sprinkle tops with pumpkin seeds. Bake for 20 to 24 minutes.
Note: The Diabetic Pastry Chef does not recommend using Splenda sugar substitute in this recipe unless mixing half with another sugar substitute such as Whey Low or erythritol.
