These are not only soft and delicious, but healthy – no butter or oil and packed with nutrition from the whole wheat flour, flax, sweet potato, etc! Great flavor combination, too.

(makes 12 muffins)

Ingredients:

Dry:

• 1.5 C whole wheat pastry flour
• 1/2 C brown sugar
• 1/4 C finely ground flax
• 1 Tbsp pumpkin pie spice
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp baking soda

Wet:

• 1 C canned pureed sweet potato
• 1/2 C dried cranberries
• 1/4 C nonfat plain Greek yogurt
• 1/4 C skim milk
• 1/4 C unsweetened applesauce
• 1/4 C unsweetened coconut
• 2 eggs

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 350.

In two separate bowls, mix dry, then wet, and then combine, adding wet to dry and stirring gently until the mixture is uniform-ish.

Spoon the mixture into a cooking-sprayed or nonstick muffin tin. Add some extra unsweetened coconut on top of the muffins

Pop them in the oven for about 25 minutes and voila!
