Ingredients

• 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
• 3/4 cup sugar or less
• 1/2 cup water
• 1/4 cup vegetable oil
• 1/4 cup plain fat-free yogurt
• 2 eggs
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 2/3 cup wheat flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
• 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350. Grease 12 muffin cups and set them aside.

In a large bowl, mix together the pumpkin, sugar, water, vegetable oil, yogurt, and eggs until smooth. Set aside.

In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, wheat flour, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, baking powder, nutmeg, cloves, and chocolate chips. Add the dry ingredients to the pumpkin mixture, stirring just until combined; the batter will be lumpy. Spoon into the muffin cups.

Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool and enjoy.
