These 1 Point Pumpkin Muffins are the perfect fall treat, combining the delicious flavors of pumpkin spice with a light, fluffy texture. With only 1 WW point per muffin, they make for a satisfying snack or breakfast without breaking your points bank. The muffins are sweetened naturally with pumpkin and a bit of sugar substitute, keeping them light yet flavorful. These are great for meal prepping or when you’re craving a low-point dessert to enjoy with your coffee.

Ingredients (for 12 muffins):

  • 1 1/2 cups canned pumpkin (pure pumpkin, not pumpkin pie filling)
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour (or any flour of choice)
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice (or cinnamon)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup sugar substitute (like Stevia or Monk Fruit Sweetener, adjust to taste)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 1/4 cup almond milk (or any milk of your choice)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly spray with cooking spray.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, salt, and sugar substitute.
  3. In a separate large bowl, combine the canned pumpkin, eggs, vanilla extract, applesauce, and almond milk. Stir until fully combined.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Spoon the batter evenly into the muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let the muffins cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
