Ingredients

    *Semi-Sweet Mini Chocolate Chip Morsels, 1 cup
    *Pumpkin, cooked, boiled, drained, without salt, 1.75 cup, mashed (or 1 15 oz canned pumpkin)
    *Splenda Brown Sugar Blend, .75 cup
    Applesauce, unsweetened, .5 cup
    Egg, fresh, 2 large
    *Egg white, 2 serving
    *Flour, white, 1.5 cup
    *Whole Wheat Flour, 1.5 cup
    Baking Powder, 1.5 tsp
    Baking Soda, 1 tsp
    Cloves, ground, 1 tsp
    Cinnamon, ground, 2 tsp
    Salt, .5 tsp
    Nutmeg, ground, 1 tsp
    Water, .5 cup

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Spray muffin pan with non-stick spray or use paper liners, or use 2 9x5 loaf pans, sprayed with no-stick spray.
Mix sugar, applesauce, eggs, pumpking and water until smooth. In a separate bowl mix flour, soda, powder, spices and salt. Combine wet and dry ingredients until smooth. Stir in chocolate chips.
Fill muffin cups 2/3 with batter. Bake at 400 20-25 minutes. Bake loaf pans at 400 for 35 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.

When I made this, I got 12 muffins and one large loaf (about 10-12 slices). We actually used fresh pumpkin that we boiled and then pureed, and it turned out great, but canned pumpkin can be substituted, as well.
