Time 45m

Yield 12 muffins, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup milled flax seed
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 cup wheat bran
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 dash salt
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1/2 cup pure pumpkin puree
1 medium apple, shredded or diced
1/4 cup soymilk
3 tablespoons egg substitute
1 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350. Combine all dry ingredients and all wet ingredients, excluding the pumpkin and apple, in two seperate mixing bowls.
  • Add to the dry ingredients the pumpkin and apple, and mix until combined well.
  • Add the wet ingredients to this mixture.
  • Spray with cooking spray your muffin pan or loaf pan, and bake for 30 minutes at 350, or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Note that these don't rise much and stay a relatively dark color; they are a moist muffin.
  • Additional Notes: May be beneficial to use half whole wheat flour and half white or all purpose, so they rise more/are a bit lighter. They taste great but aren't the prettiest things ;-) I ended up dividing the batter between three mini loaf "pans" instead of muffins, but it should make about 12 medium sized muffins.
