Fat-Free Banana-Pumpkin Muffins

This is a recipe I made up to make muffins that were fat-free, so just a little more wholesome. Basically, it's a mix of pumpkin bread and banana bread, but without butter or oil. This recipe is good for adapting to those that do not care about it being fat-free. Adding mini chocolate chips makes the muffins sweeter, but still not too unhealthy.

  • Combine whole wheat flour, baking soda, salt, and remaining spice mixture in another large bowl. Slowly add banana-pumpkin mixture and mix until completely moistened. Fold in chocolate chips.

  • Spoon batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin. Place a pinch of reserved 1/2 teaspoon spice mixture on top of each muffin.
