Ultimate Pumpkin Muffins: Hearty Whole Wheat Delight with Nutty Flaxseed & Oat Goodness
  • Prep Time

    40 mins

Ingredients

  • 1 cup of whole wheat flour
  • with ½ cup of oat bran
  • mixed with ¼ cup of flaxseed meal
  • alongside a tablespoon of ground cinnamon
  • and 1 ½ teaspoons each of baking soda and powder
  • combined with a teaspoon of ground nutmeg
  • and another of ground cloves
  • then an egg, beaten
  • with 4 tablespoons of canola oil added
  • and ½ a can of pumpkin pie filling (like Libby's®)
  • mixed with ⅔ cup of applesauce
  • and ½ cup of brown sugar

Step 1

Prepare for a delightful baking session by preheating your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and gently placing paper liners into a 12-cup muffin tin.

Step 2

In a spacious bowl, combine the wholesome ingredients: whole wheat flour, oat bran, flaxseed meal, fragrant cinnamon, leavening agents like baking soda and powder, along with a hint of nutmeg and cloves for a touch of warmth.

Step 3

In another bowl, beat an egg with an electric mixer until light and airy. Slowly drizzle in canola oil, whisking until the mixture is silky smooth. Incorporate the rich flavors of pumpkin pie mix, applesauce, and a sprinkle of brown sugar, blending until a velvety consistency is achieved. Gently fold this mixture into the bowl of dry ingredients, stirring until a harmonious batter is formed.

Step 4

Carefully spoon the batter into the awaiting muffin cups, ensuring an even distribution of goodness in each.

Step 5

Slide the tin into the preheated oven, allowing the muffins to bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out impeccably clean. This process usually takes around 25 to 28 minutes, filling your kitchen with a tantalizing aroma that signals the perfect moment to delight in your freshly baked treats.

Extra Tips & Suggestions

  1. 1. Keep your pumpkin muffins fresh longer by storing them in an airtight container. This will help prevent them from drying out and losing their delicious moisture.
  2. 2. For extra freshness, place a small piece of bread in the container with the muffins. The bread will absorb any excess moisture and keep your treats tasting just-baked.
  3. 3. If you want to freeze your pumpkin muffins for later enjoyment, individually wrap them in plastic wrap before placing them in a freezer-safe container. This will help preserve their flavor and prevent freezer burn.
