Categories     Muffin

Yield about 16 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 cup vegetable oil
3/4 cup brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 cup pureed pumpkin
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 3/4 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground nutmeg
1/2 cup dry millet
1/4 cup buttermilk
3/4 cup dark chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Place a rack in the center of the oven and preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Line a muffin tin with paper or foil liners and set aside. In a large bowl, whisk together oil, brown sugar, eggs, pureed pumpkin, and vanilla extract. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, salt, baking soda, spices, and millet. Add the dry ingredients, all at once to the wet ingredients. Add the butter milk and fold together. When batter is almost completely mixed, fold in the chocolate chips. Spoon batter into prepared pan. Fill muffin cups three quarters full. Bake for 15 to 17 minutes, or until a skewer inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean. Let rest for at least 15 minutes before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature. Muffins will last, well wrapped at room temperature, for up to 3 days. These muffins also freeze really well. Seal in a freezer-safe bag and store in the freezer.
