Low Calorie Pumpkin Pie Muffins

I came up with this recipe today because I had some pumpkin pie mix left from the parfaits I made yesterday. I wanted a nice low fat and calorie muffin I can eat for breakfast. A lot of the recipes online were just too high in fat for me. These have a moist-spongy texture and are very mild in pumpkin flavor and sweetness. It actually reminded me a little of a corn muffin. Not the best, but good enough!

Hope you enjoy!

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cup all purpose flour
1 t baking soda
1 cup pumpkin pie mix (either left over from scratch or canned like lazy me!)
1/3 cup unsweetened applesauce
2 large organic eggs
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup splenda
1/2 t baking soda
1/2 t salt
(1 t cinnamon and 1T sugar mixed together for sprinkling)

I honestly just dumped everything with the exception of the sprinkling sugar into my Kitchen Aid and whipped it. Once it was all combined and smooth I put it into 12 GREASED muffin tins (this is important) and sprinkled it with the sugar/cinnamon mixture. 

Whaala! Yum!
