Method

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large mixing bowl, stir together flours, wheat germ, sugar, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In a medium mixing bowl, combine canola oil, soy milk, vanilla and pumpkin. Add wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until thoroughly combined into a thick batter. Spray muffin tins with nonstick cooking spray. Fill muffin cups about 3/4 full. Sprinkle walnuts on top of each muffin. Bake 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Transfer to a cooling rack.

 

Notes: As the token health nut in the family, all my relatives expect me to serve them healthy food. These tasty muffins satisfy their expectations and their appetites. And serving delicious, heart healthy food to my family is my way of showing how much I care about them.
