Pumpkin Muffins

Print Recipe

The secret to these enticing muffins is a combination of moist, rich pumpkin, 
orange
juice, and flavorful buckwheat.

Ingredients 
   Nonstick spray coating
1-1/3  cups all-purpose flour
3/4  cup buckwheat flour
1/4  cup sugar plus 2 packets heat-stable sugar substitute, or 1/3 cup sugar
1-1/2  teaspoons baking powder
1  teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2  teaspoon baking soda
1/2  teaspoon salt
2   slightly beaten eggs
1  cup canned pumpkin
1/2  cup fat-free milk
2  tablespoons cooking oil
1/2  teaspoon finely shredded orange peel
1/4  cup orange juice 

Directions
1. Spray twelve 2-1/2-inch muffin cups with nonstick coating; set pan aside. In a
medium bowl combine the all-purpose flour, buckwheat flour, sugar plus sugar substitute or the sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. Make a well in the center of flour mixture; set aside.
 
2. In another bowl combine the eggs, pumpkin, milk, oil, orange peel, and orange
juice. Add the egg mixture all at once to the flour mixture. Stir just until moistened (batter should be lumpy).
 
3. Spoon batter into the prepared muffin cups, dividing the batter evenly. Bake in a
400 degree F oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until the muffins are light brown. Cool in muffin cups on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Remove from muffin cups; serve warm. Makes 12 muffins.
