Pumped Up Pumpkin Muffins by Jen
3 1/2 c flour
3 c sugar (this can probably be reduced some)
2 t baking soda
1 t cinnamon
1 t nutmeg
1 1/2 t salt
4 eggs (beaten)
1 c (canola) oil
2/3 c water*
2 c mashed pumpkin
2 c peeled, grated zucchini
1-2 peeled, grated apples
Optional:
Chocolate chips
Sift together dry ingredients. In a separate bowl, combine eggs, oil, water,
pumpkin and mix well. Add to dry ingredients. Bake at 350 degrees for 18-20
minutes in a greased muffin pan. Bake mini muffins for approximately 10-13
minutes. Optional: Top each muffin with a few chocolate chips prior to
baking.
*because the zucchini and apple added water, I waited until the batter was
mixed then added water to thin the batter some. It was probably closer to
1/3 cup--batter should be somewhat thick, like between brownie and cake
batter

I made these muffins. They are really good. I also froze some and they are great for busy breakfasts. I did not add the chocolate chips. I don't really see how they would go with the overall flavor.
ReplyDeleteI made them again. I used 1 1/2 c sugar. It is only a little bit sweet, I like it this way for Dominik. He is little and he doesn't know any sweater. It is great for breakfast. For older kids you might need more sugar, 2 c is a good guess.
