These lightly sweetened, butter-free muffins evoke the scents and tastes of the holidays. With fewer carbs and calories than regular sugar, concentrated fruit-juice reduction also adds moistness; look for all-natural options, such as Wax Orchards Fruit Sweet, in your store.
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350˚. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with baking cups.
- Sift together flours, baking soda, salt, nutmeg, cinnamon, ginger, and allspice in a bowl. In a separate bowl, mix together pumpkin purée, fruit-juice reduction or agave, oil, and coconut milk. Stir wet mixture into dry until just incorporated (do not overmix). Fold in coconut, walnuts, and dried cranberries.
- Divide batter evenly among muffin tins. Bake for 20–25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
