Equipment

  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Convection oven
  • Whisk and spatula
  • Bowls for mixing the batter

Ingredients

  • 2 cups of whole wheat flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ¾ cup jaggery powder can be substituted with brown sugar or use normal sugar
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 2 bananas I used Philippines banana
  • 2 royal gala apples peeled, cored and grated
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon powder
  • 1 teaspoon ginger powder
  • ½ cup warm water
  • ½ cup oil
  • ½ cup dark chocolate chips
  • 1 cup mixed nuts & seeds i have used pumpkin seeds, hazelnuts and sunflower seeds

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 160c. Line the muffin tray with liners. I have used 12-hole big muffin pan and a 12-hole mini muffin pan.
  • In a bowl, take flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon powder, dry ginger powder. Whisk this all together.
  • Add nuts and seeds, along with chocolate chips to this flour mix and whisk it together.

Wet Ingredients

  • In another wide bowl, take jaggery powder, along with pumpkin purée and bananas. Mash it well to form a liquid.
  • Add grated apple to this , along with half cup water and oil . Whisk well.
  • Add cinnamon powder and dry ginger powder to this wet ingredients, whisk well to form a uniform liquid.

Mix wet ingredients and dry ingredients

  • Now add ½ cup of flour mix at a time, in to the wet ingredients and mix using a whisk to form a uniform batter
  • Fill the big muffin pan with ½ cup batter in each hole. I used a greased ½ measure cup, so it was easy to pour the batter. Fill the remaining batter into the mini muffin pan.

Let's Bake Muffins

  • Bake the muffins in the preheated oven for 25-28 minutes or until a skewer inserted in the middle comes out clean. The mini muffin gets done by 15-18 minutes.
  • Oven temperature differs from oven to oven, so bake accordingly.
  • Once the muffins are done, remove it from the oven, let it sit in the pan for 2 minutes, the remove the muffins onto a wire rack.

Store & Serve

  • Let it cool completely. The muffins can remain on the kitchen counter for a day. I prefer to refrigerate in an air-tight box.
  • If serving from the refrigerator, reheat the muffins for a 10-20 seconds and serve the muffins warm.

Notes

  • Baking temperature varies from oven to oven, so keep an eye on the bake after 15 minutes. 
  • if you are using frozen pumpkin puree in the bake, then keep it out of the freezer and let it thaw completely before using in the bake.
