Lowfat Pumpkin Cranberry Muffins Recipe

2 cups flour
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup pumpkin puree
2 cups fresh or frozen (thawed) cranberries, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup applesauce
1/4 cup skim milk
1/4 cup molasses
1/4 cup egg substitute

Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a 12-cup muffin pan with nonstick spray. Combine flour, brown sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt in a medium mixing bowl and mix well. Combine remaining ingredients in a separate mixing bowl. Add liquid ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing just until moist. Divide batter between muffin cups and bake 30 minutes, or until golden brown and an inserted toothpick comes out clean. Remove from tins and cool on wire racks.

Makes 12 Servings
Serving Size: 1 muffin
