How to Make Pumpkin Choc Chip Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup pumpkin puree, 1/4 cup applesauce, 1/2 cup Splenda (or sugar substitute of choice), 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 2 large egg whites.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Stir in 1 cup chocolate chips and 1/4 cup flaxseeds.
  6. Fill each muffin cup about 2/3 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.
