Hello one & all...as promised here is the first of the pumpkin/ squash recipes. Made these tonight while the oven was still hot from dinner. They are intended for breakfast tomorrow but there are two missing. Smelled so good that the two big ones had to snag one! Declared them the best muffins I ever made...well, that should be enough to make you try 'em!
Apple Spice Muffins
2 1/2 cups flour
2 cups sugar (we used 1 2/3 cups and still could have cut it down a bit)
1 TBSP pumpkin pie spice
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
4 egg whites
1 cup canned pumpkin (or squash puree...we used butternut)
1/2 cup canola oil
2 cups apples, peeled and finely chopped
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 tsp cinnamon
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly coat muffin tins with non-stick cooking spray. Place flour, sugar, pie spice, salt, and baking soda in a large bowl. Mix well with a whisk. In a seperate bowl combine egg whites, pumpkin and oil mixing well. Add the pumpkin mixture to the flour and blend just till the dry ingredients are moistened. Fold in apples. Bake 30 minutes or until golden brown and toothpick comes out clean. Mix the 1/4 cup sugar and cinnamon. Dip tops of muffins into blend while they are still hot. Cool slightly before serving. Makes 18 muffins.
Make and enjoy! Blessings, Eve
