Ingredients

• 2 eggs
• 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
• 0.5 cup chopped walnuts
• 0.5 cup honey
• 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.5 cup vegetable oil
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 cup packed brown sugar
• 0.5 cup raisins
• 0.75 teaspoon baking powder
• 1.5 cups whole wheat flour
• 0.75 cup canned pumpkin puree

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 12-cup muffin pan or line with paper liners. Place raisins into a cup and add enough hot water to cover. Let stand for a few minutes to plump.

Step 2

Meanwhile, in a large bowl, stir together whole wheat flour, brown sugar, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Make a well in the center; put eggs, pumpkin, oil, and honey into the well. Mix just until dry ingredients are absorbed.

Step 3

Drain excess water from raisins. Stir raisins and walnuts into batter, then spoon batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each 2/3 full.

Step 4

Bake in the preheated oven until the tops spring back when lightly touched, about 18 minutes. Cool in the pan before removing from cups.
