Time 35m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 22

1 cup all-purpose flour
½ cup whole wheat flour
¼ cup flax seed meal
¼ cup rolled oats, plus extra for garnish
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger
½ teaspoon ground cloves
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
½ cup dark brown sugar
1 cup pumpkin puree
½ cup nonfat plain yogurt
2 eggs
3 tablespoons molasses
3 tablespoons unsweetened applesauce
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup golden raisins
½ cup chopped walnuts
2 tablespoons pumpkin seeds for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray 12 muffin cups with cooking spray.
  • In a bowl, mix together the 2 flours, flax seed meal, rolled oats, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and nutmeg until the ingredients are thoroughly combined.
  • In another large bowl, beat together the brown sugar, pumpkin puree, yogurt , eggs, molasses, applesauce, canola oil, vanilla, and until well-blended. Stir in the flour mixture just to combine, and gently mix in the raisins and walnuts.
  • Divide the mixture into the prepared muffin tins, sprinkle each muffin with a few rolled oats and pumpkin seeds, and bake in the preheated oven until the tops spring back when touched and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 15 to 20 minutes.

I wasn't a fan of the molasses glaze, but the muffins themselves were delicious.
