Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup oil
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup pumpkin
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons molasses
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 cup bran
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon cloves
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ginger
  • 1 cup raisins

Instructions

  • Kick the tires and light the fires to 350 degrees.
  • Take all the dry ingredients except the bran, and whisk together in a bowl. 
  • In another bowl combine the oil, sugar, molasses, pumpkin and eggs.
  • Add the bran into the wet mixture, combine and then let sit for 5 minutes. 
  • Add in your raisins (which can be plumped in the microwave by boiling them in water). 
  • Add the dry ingredients and mix until they are just combined together, if you over-mix pumpkin, you get muffins that are rubbery and bounce.
  • Fill the muffin tins about 3/4 of the way, then bake for 15-20 minutes at 350 degrees until the tops bounce back when pushed gently.
