Happiness to me, is the smell of freshly baked goodies that surround my home! Here I am, typing this post, with such a satisfied happiness, after baking these sweet little goodies for my dear cousin who has come home for vacation. I am now happy to share the recipe that was enjoyed by her and ofcourse all others at home too. This recipe has been adapted from Madhuram's egglesscooking.com and I have spiced it up a little with addition of fresh spices!
INGREDIENTS:
- Flour - 1 cup (I used 1/2 cup of whole wheat flour and 1/2 cup of maida)
- Salt - 1/4 teaspoon
- Baking Soda - 3/4 teaspoon
- Garam Masala/All spice powder - 1/2 teaspoon
- Ground ginger powder (sukku podi) - 1/2 teaspoon
- Pumpkin puree - 1/2 cup **
- Granulated sugar - 6 tablespoons
- Milk - 1/2 cup
- Oil - 3 tablespoons
- Vinegar - 1 teaspoon
- Vanilla extract - 1/2 teaspoon
- Choco Chips - to garnish (optional)
METHOD:
- Pre-heat oven to 180C
- Line 6 muffin moulds with paper liners or grease them
- Mix all dry ingredients together (flour, salt, baking soda, spices). Keep aside
- Blend all the other ingredients together except choco chips (pumpkin puree, oil, sugar, milk, vinegar, vanilla extract)
- Fold in the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients
- Fill 3/4th of each moulds with the batter
- Bake in pre-heated oven at 180C for 15-20 minutes (Mine was done in 16 minutes)
- Cool the muffins on a wired rack for 5 minutes and then remove from the moulds and cool completely
- Enjoy this tea time treat with your family!
NOTES:
** Pressure cook the pumpkin for 2 whistles and puree it in a mixer or food processor
