Nutty Pumpkin Muffins
This medley of harvest flavors makes these muffins perfect for cool fall mornings. But my family enjoys them year-round, so I always have the ingredients on hand for fresh-from-the-oven goodness.

I baked these yesterday & we love them. I halved the recipe to make 6 muffins because we have just the two of us to feed. I used black walnuts and added about 1/8 tsp each of nutmeg and ginger for the half recipe. Will definitely be making these again.
Yummy for Fall!! Great recipe.
These muffins were well received. I used pecans rather than walnuts since my family doesn't like walnuts. I also put a few on top for decoration. Other than that I made them just as written.
These were moist & delicious & easy to make. I added 1/4 tsp. each of nutmeg & ground ginger, and put pieces of the chopped walnuts on the top of each muffing before baking. It made them more attractive. Next time I will substitute Splenda for part of the sugar and applesauce for the oil to reduce the calories.

I replaced the oil with Smuckers Baking Healthy oil substitute and the sugar with Splenda Blend for baking. This saved 140 calories calories and about 10 grams of fat, reducing the calorie count to 168 per muffin. I also added some nutmeg and cloves in addition to the cinnamon. They were delicious, definitely a keeper.
I switched the oil with applesauce, added 1/2 tsp of nutmeg and allspice.They turned out wonderful. My family loves pumpkin cookies this recipe will be added as a pumpkin favorite.Angie Rensing
