1-Gram Fat Pumpkin Spice Muffins (Low Fat)

Recipe #211938 | 45 min | 15 min prep | SERVES 36 (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: KITTENCAL

These muffins are a blessing for people restricted to low-fat foods, there is only about 1 gram of fat in each muffin, these muffins do not at all taste low-fat! This recipe will make 36 muffins, so just pop them into the freezer for a fat-free snack or for breakfast! If desired add in chopped nuts although that will add to the fat content, You can use egg beaters in place of eggs and white sugar in place of brown or use half of each.

    Wonderful muffins. Absolutely delicious, moist, and flavorful. I used 1/2 ww and 1/2 all-purpose flour, 1/2 brown sugar and 1/2 brown sugar splenda, 1 c of yogurt since I didn't have any applesauce and I added 2 cups of chopped baking apples instead of raisins. WE LOVED THEM. Perfect. Thanks for posting another winner!

    I tried this this morning and they are great! I cut the recipe in 1/2. Wish now I would have made a full recipe! I only used 1 cup of brown sugar and 1/4 cup of local honey. I used 1/4 cup raisins,(that's all I had), and 1/2 cup chopped pecans. I eliminated the Yogurt and applesauce and added 2 Tablespoons of water. VERY GOOD!!! Thanks you!!!

    I'm not rating this because I scaled the recipe back to make 12 servings and that might have affected the outcome. The muffins taste marvelous (I wouldn't even think they were nonfat going on taste alone) but the texture was a problem.It was soggy and very dense inside, more like a pudding than a muffin or even cake texture.I really want to try this again considering they taste so great and are nonfat (I used eggbeaters). Also Carol, I have a question since I can't mail you - where you give the option to use 1c applesauce, is that in addition to the 1/4cup already mentioned? I wasn't too sure about that. Anyway, I am gonna try this again and then rate it. BTW my house smells heavenly with this just out the oven.
