Muffin Man

My little boy is a true muffin man... what kid isn't? I found this recipe when I was trying to find ways to incorporate more fruit and veggies in his diet, without him exactly realizing they were there. (If anyone else has great recipes for picky eaters- please share!) And don't be fooled by the "sugar-free" in the title- my husband is all about flavor in his food and even he loves them. They are very moist and yummy.

(Sorry- no pictures!)

Healthy (Sugar-Free) Pumpkin Muffins

1&3/4 C whole wheat flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 C canned pumpkin
1/4 C canola oil
1/4 C applesauce
1/2 C honey
1/3 C water
3/4 C raisins or coconut or choc chips (or all if you want!)

Mix wet and dry ingredients separately, then mix together until combined. Bake in muffin cups at 350 for 20-25 minutes.
