    Here are my pumpkin power muffins...they are huge and very filling!

    Ingredients
    Raley's Fine Foods - Canned Garbanzo Beans Reduced Sodium, 1 container (437.5 gs ea.)
    Libby's - Pumpkin (15 oz Can), 1 can
    Mott's - Natural Applesauce-unsweetened, 1 cup
    Quaker - Oatmeal - Old Fashioned, 1 cup dry
    Sunnyside Farms - 100% Liquid Egg Whites, 3/4 cup raw
    Mccormick's - Pure Vanilla Extract, 2 TBS
    Plantation - Blackstrap - Unsulphured Molasses (With Correct Potassium Info), 2 Tbsp. (21g)
    Manitoba Harvest - Hemp Hearts, 30 g (3 Tbsp)
    Diamond - Chopped Pecans Net Carbs, 1/2 cup (60g)
    Spices - Cinnamon, ground, 2 tsp
    Spices - Ginger, ground, 0.5 tsp
    Spices - Cloves, ground, 0.5 tsp
    Spices - Nutmeg, ground, 0.25 tsp
    Baking soda, 1 tsp
    Shur Fine - Baking Powder, 1 tsp
    3/8 cup splenda (or to your taste)
    Optimum Nutrition - Performance 100% Whey Isolate - Vanilla Shake (Costco), 3 scoops
    1/8-1/4 cup water (depending consistency)

    Directions

    Mix garbanzo beans with egg substitute in the blender until smooth. Add applesauce and all the spices, baking powder and baking soda. Mix again until blended. Add molasses, pumpkin and 1/8-1/4 cup water in the blender and mix again. (Water varies depending on how wet the pumpkin is....my blender will cease up if I mix it all at once so I do it in stages. I also add water to get it moving again as needed and usually around ¼ cup....just don’t overdo it).

    Transfer mix to a bowl. Add hemp hearts (chia works too), splenda, and oatmeal. Mix until incorporated. Now add protein powder. Mix with hand blender until smooth. I sometimes mix all of this in the blender and am fine....just be sure to add it in small steps if you skip mixing with a hand mixer.

    Pour into silicon cupcake molds. If you use another type of mold, be sure to oil/grease them. They will be full up to the top of the mold...they don’t rise much so don’t worry.

    The next step is easiest if you have a digital scale but if not, just divide the 60 grams chopped pecans over the top of the muffins. If you have a scale, sprinkle 5 grams on each muffin mold. Mix nuts into the muffins with a pointy instrument like a chopstick...this will ensure each one has the exact amount of nuts.

    Bake at 375 for 35-40 minutes depending on your oven and the molds you use.
