How to Make Low Carb Low Fat Pumpkin Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a food processor, grind 1 cup of rolled oats into a fine flour.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together: 1 ½ cups almond flour, ½ cup oat flour (from step 2), 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice, 1 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon salt.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together: 1 cup pumpkin puree, 2 large eggs, ¼ cup unsweetened applesauce, 2 tablespoons melted coconut oil, ½ cup granulated sugar substitute (e.g., Splenda), 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  5. Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Fill each muffin liner about ¾ full.
  7. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
