How to Make 1 Gram Fat Pumpkin Spice Muffins Low Fat
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Line three standard 12-cup muffin tins with paper liners. Lightly grease the liners with cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 cup packed light brown sugar, 4 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon salt, 2 teaspoons ground nutmeg, 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, and 1 teaspoon ground cloves. Whisk until thoroughly combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs (or 1 cup egg beaters), 1 (15-ounce) can pumpkin puree, 1 cup unsweetened applesauce, and 1 cup fat-free plain yogurt until smooth and well blended.
- Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in 1 cup raisins (or other dried fruit).
- Evenly divide the batter among the muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the muffins cool in the tins for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
