    Mix a can of pumpkin with angel food cake mix! Not too high-calorie.

    PUMPKIN ANGEL FOOD CAKE
    Ingredients
    1 cup canned pumpkin
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
    1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
    1/8 teaspoon ground ginger
    1 package (16 ounces) angel food cake mix
    14 tablespoons reduced-fat whipped topping
    Additional ground cinnamon, optional

    Directions
    In a large bowl, combine the pumpkin, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and ginger. Prepare cake mix according to package directions. Fold a fourth of the batter into pumpkin mixture; gently fold in the remaining batter. Gently spoon into an ungreased 10-in. tube pan. Cut through batter with a knife to remove air pockets.

    Bake on the lowest oven rack at 350° for 38-44 minutes or until top is golden brown and cake springs back when lightly touched and entire top appears dry. Immediately invert pan; cool completely, about 1 hour.

    Run a knife around side and center tube of pan. Remove cake to a serving plate. Garnish each slice with 1 tablespoon whipped topping; sprinkle with cinnamon if desired. Yield: 14 servings.

    You can take a cake mix in a box, and mix it with a can of pumpkin pie filling, instead of the oil and eggs and stuff, and bak3 it according to box directions, and make muffins out of it. I made this a couple times and the pumpkin makes it very moist, so the consistency is very rich, but it really cuts calories! You can add chocolate chips if you like the flavor combination, or nuts, and it breaks up the smoothness, giving it more texture, amd they don't add an awful lot of calories. I'm looking forward to this fall so I can make more!

    Bumping! Love pumpkin-everything - kills me it's so hard to find canned pumpkin here in the UK, and we don't get anywhere near the range of seasonal pumpkin-flavoured products!

    That chili recipe looks great! I'll just take out the turkey, and maybe sub with some extra beans or tofu to try and match the protein profile. I feel silly for forgetting you can put pumpkin in with chili!

    I've been basically having butternut squash on the side of all my dinners, because 200g of it I find is rather filling, and comes in under 90 calories, and I think pumpkin is even lower in calories!
