Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins

This morning I scrounged up enough energy to make these yummy muffins. It was a bit more time consuming than I like these days, but they were worth it! I got the idea from Once a Month Mom but the orignally recipe can be found at Meal Makeover Moms

Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/4 cup ground flaxseed or wheat germ (I used wheat germ)
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup canned pure pumpkin
2 large eggs, beaten
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup milk
1/3 cup canola oil
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup chocolate chips

Directions

1.Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly oil or coat muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
2.Whisk together the flours, wheat germ, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt in a large bowl. Combine the pumpkin, eggs, brown sugar, oil, milk, and vanilla in a medium bowl and stir until well combined. Pour the liquid ingredients over the dry ingredients and stir until just moistened. Stir in the chocolate chips.
3.Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups. Bake 15 to 18 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

It made about 14 full-size muffins for me! Naomi loved them (minus the chocolate chips). I can still "fool" her for a little while :)
