This is for fans of Carol Fenster, whose book "Dietary Solutions"  is
used on such a regular basis in my kitchen that I have had to cover with
plastic the pages with muffin mix and Irish soda bread recipes.

Starting with 2 1/3 cups of her muffin mix*, I add pumpkin pie spices to
taste (cinammon, cloves, nutmeg), a scant 1/4 c. brown sugar.  Blend on
low speed.

Add in 1 cup cooked pumpkin pulp, 2 eggs (or 1 egg plus 4 tsps. Just
Whites if you want lower cholesterol), 3+ tbspns canola or other oil,
(about 1/2 tsp Stevia extract - liquid*), all slightly beaten together.


Mix on medium speed until well blended, at least 2 minutes.  Add water
if the mixture is too thick - for good muffins I prefer a lighter
batter, but that is up to personal preference, and hard to guage in any
generalized way.

For a really scrumptious treat mix in about 1/2 cup broken pecans.

Bake at 375 for about 30 minutes.  Cool on a rack.

Oh my.

I freeze them in batches of 4, as they stay moister this way.

*about the muffin mix:  I make mine using sorghum flour in place of rice
flour.  The sorghum is mixed with arrowroot:  7 parts sorghum to one
part arrowroot.  Also, I do not use sugar, substituting in its place
Stevia. Sometimes I replace about 1/4 cup of the mix with rice bran for
texture.
