Perfect use for Fall pumpkins, and good with carrots when pumpkins aren't in season! Top with a lemon cream cheese frosting to turn it into carrot cake (this was adapted from C. Lipori's blue ribbon carrot cake recipe.) Uses a whopping 7 cups of veggies, whole wheat, olive oil, & half the sugar, but doesn't sacrifice taste!
The pumpkin has a lot more water content than carrots, giving you the unique super-moist bread pudding consistency inside the delicious muffin crust. I love the peaches in this, too.
Delightful warm. 11 sec. in the microwave for 1 muffin does the trick.Directions
Cover raisins in hot water & let soak.Shred pumpkin into bowl & set aside.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.Mix eggs, oil, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, & spices with electric mixer. Add drained peaches & use mixer to break peaches up into bits. Stir in flour, then pumpkin, nuts, and drained raisins.Scoop batter into 24 lined cupcake tins, and the rest into a greased 8" or 9" square baking pan, to bake all at once...or do all cupcakes, in batches.
Bake at 350 degrees F for about 40 minutes, until golden on top.*King Arthur unbleached white whole wheat flour uses a whole wheat berry that has a natural light color and flavor...still completely whole grain.
I use "light" canned peaches. Either should work fine.
