Recipe Introduction
Muffins don't keep well so I freeze them as soon as they've cooled.
They're quick to microwave and the pumpkin provides valuable
betacarotene. The trick with all muffins is not to overmix.
List of Ingredients
2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1/2 cup sugar
1 Tbsp. baking powder
1 tsp. each cinnamon & nutmeg
1 cup milk (I use 1%)
1 cup canned pumpkin (1/2 can)
1/3 cup Canola or vegetable oil
2 eggs
1 cup walnuts or dried cranberries or chocolate chips (optional)

• Sift dry ingredients into large bowl & stir to combine.
• In another bowl combine milk, pumpkin, oil & eggs.
