Whole Wheat Pumpkin Muffins

Josiah was begging me to make muffins yesterday. I didn't feel like looking for a recipe, so I decided to make one up myself. I am VERY happy with how these turned out...they are DELICIOUS! They went really fast as well. I will have to make them again:-)

2 ¼ cups whole wheat flour mix (equal parts whole wheat flour, white flour and wheat germ)
1 Tbsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
¼ cup coconut oil
¼ cup applesauce
½ cup milk
½ cup canned pumpkin
½ cup honey
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1 egg

Preheat oven to 350. Prepare a muffin tin (recipe makes 12 muffins). Mix together dry ingredients. Add wet ingredients and mix together until just moistened (do NOT overmix). Bake at 375 for 18 – 20 minutes.

Buttermilk Oatmeal Muffins

I made these muffins this morning before we headed out to play group...they are YUMMY:-)

1 c. rolled oats
1 c. buttermilk
1 egg, unbeaten
1/4 c. warmed honey
1 c. whole wheat pastry flour
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. soda
1/3 c. melted coconut oil

Soak oats in buttermilk at least 1/2 hour. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Beat egg into oat mixture. Add honey and combine thoroughly. Stir together flour, salt and soda. Make sure no lumps in soda. Stir into oatmeal mixture then add oil. Mix only until combined. Bake in buttered muffin tin 15-18 minutes until brown. Makes 1 dozen muffins.
