Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins



















I sent this delicious autumn treat to work with my husband, as well as bringing some to share with my co-workers as well. Everyone enjoyed them. They look and taste great.

RECIPE: Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins

INGREDIENTS:

3/4 Cup Brown Sugar
1/4 Vegetable Oil*
2 Eggs*
1/4 Cup Water
1 Cup Canned Pumpkin
1 1/2 Cup All-Purpose Wheat Flour
3/4 TSP Baking Powder
1/2 TSP Baking Soda
1 1/4 TSP Ground Cinnamon
1 TSP Pumpkin Pie Spice
1/4 TSP Salt
1 Cup Mini Chocolate Chips

DIRECTIONS:

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Using Pam (or another kind of baking spray) grease the inside of muffin pan or use liners.

2. Mix all the ingredients, add the Mini Chocolate Chips after everything else has come together.

3. Fill muffin cups about 2/3 full with batter. (I sprayed the 2/3 measuring cup with Pam, for easy pouring). Bake in preheated oven for about 20 minutes, until you can insert a toothpick and it comes out clean.

*Feel free to use Applesauce instead of Vegetable Oil, and Egg Beaters instead of Eggs for a healthier recipe.

These muffins are yummy all by themselves, but are extra yummy warmed and with a little cream cheese. Hope you enjoy!
