Ingredients
1 cup sugar2 cups brown sugar (I used "golden")1/2 cup oil1 cup of apple sauce (2 x 113 g snack packs portions)2 cans (398 ml) pumpkin3 eggs1/2 cup flax seed2 tbsp water (added enough water to the flax to get to 2/3 cup and microwaved mix of water and flax for 1 minute to soften the seeds, 2 tbsp is just a guess)2 tbsp honey3 1/2 cups flour1 tsp baking powder2 tsp baking soda2 tsp salt1 tsp cinnamon1 tsp allspice1/2 tsp nutmeg1/2 tsp ginger1/2 tsp cloves2/3 cups water1 1/2 cup raisins1 cup nuts (walnut and/or pecan) (optional)
Directions
Mix oil& sugar. Add apple sauce, eggs, flax & pumpkin. Sift all dry ingredients& add alternately with water to pumpkin, mixing well. Stir in raisins and nuts.

Pour into greased muffin tins or use baking cups & bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. I ran out of muffin tins at 24 so I put the rest in a small loaf pan and that worked out alright too although I cooked it an additional ten minutes. It wasn't very deep so perhaps check it with a toothpick to ensure it is well cooked after the 40 minutes.

Leave the nuts out if you're sending the muffins to school with your children. I just made one muffin tray without nuts and then added nuts to the remaining batter. Use different coloured paper muffin cups to help you remember which is which.
