Spicy vegetable muffins with zucchini
To make baked goods healthier, you can use not only alternative types of flour, but also add vegetable puree or simply grated vegetables, beans or lentils. This way you not only reduce the amount of flour consumed, but also enrich the dessert with fiber and vegetable protein.
Ingredients:
- 8 g flaxseeds or flaxseed meal
- 30 ml water
- 200 g coarsely grated zucchini or zucchini

Baking with pumpkin is a prime example of a dietary approach because... It is a healthy dietary product, which is why it is used as the basis for many different dishes, from pies to side dishes. I note that in this recipe, in the summer, pumpkin can be safely replaced with zucchini, but then you will need to add one more egg. Such muffins will, of course, not be sweet, but they will also be tasty, and they can be served as a main course, or as a side dish with sour cream and mustard sauce.
As for this recipe, these pumpkin muffins are the most delicate dessert that simply melts in your mouth. Apart from pumpkin, there is no more flour or semolina, only bran. The smell and taste of pumpkin, which not everyone likes, is masked with orange zest, and sugar is replaced with honey. Well, what could be tastier, and most importantly healthier, and at the same time dietary? However, I note that in order for pumpkin desserts to turn out delicious, you should first of all learn how to choose it. Firstly, preference should be given to pumpkin weighing from 3 to 5 kg. Secondly, its peel should be dense, smooth and without damage. Thirdly, the brighter its pulp, the tastier the vegetable will be. And always buy a ripe product - a ripe pumpkin has a dry tail and a dark color.
Dietary pumpkin curd muffins. Muffins with cottage cheese and pumpkin
A healthy breakfast and an incredibly tasty dessert for tea that cannot harm your figure is not a myth. Unusually tender, airy, pleasant orange pumpkin curd muffins are exactly the delicacy that combines sweetness and nutrition. And they will definitely appeal to both small and adult family members.
About baking
Pumpkin and cottage cheese muffins are unusual and very tasty. Oddly enough, these 2 ingredients not only go well with each other, but also complement each other, revealing an interesting range of taste.
The peculiarity of this recipe for cottage cheese and pumpkin muffins is that flour is not used for their preparation. It can be successfully replaced by corn starch. Therefore, the baked goods are dietary and low in calories.
A small amount of sugar is needed, so this dessert can be consumed even by small children.
Cooking tips
Pumpkin muffins with cottage cheese according to this recipe are prepared from two bases - cottage cheese and pumpkin mass. They are prepared separately and alternated while filling the molds.
It is advisable to use dietary cottage cheese; a product with 5% fat content is ideal. But you can also use homemade cottage cheese. It must be rubbed through a sieve before use to avoid large lumps.
Pumpkin pulp is pre-boiled and crushed in a blender. The mass must be cooled as eggs are added to it.
It is better to use silicone molds for baking such muffins. It is not recommended to use paper ones, as the dough turns out to be too liquid. If there are no silicone molds, metal ones will do, but they should be greased with vegetable oil and sprinkled with semolina.
Pumpkin muffins with cottage cheese according to this recipe will not rise much during baking, but in appearance they will turn out very bright and appetizing with an amazing aroma.

Meatless Pumpkin Muffins – Recipe
For everyone who is fasting or avoiding the appearance of animal products on the menu, we suggest preparing these simple pumpkin muffins without eggs and milk, which any third-party eater will hardly be able to distinguish from classic muffins.
Ingredients:
- flax seeds - 15 g;
- pumpkin puree - 230 g;
- — 115 ml;
- vegetable oil - 115 ml;
- applesauce - 115 ml;
- whole grain flour - 115 g;
- almond flour - 135 g;
- soda - 1 teaspoon;
- baking powder - 1/2 teaspoon;
- a handful of chocolate chips.
Preparation
The egg substitute in this recipe will be applesauce, which you can buy ready-made in the baby food department or make yourself. Along with applesauce, flax seeds will help bind all the ingredients together, but first you should grind them, add a quarter glass of water and leave for 20 minutes.
Start by mixing all the dry ingredients. Separately, whisk honey with applesauce and butter. Add pumpkin puree, swollen ground flax, stir and combine everything together with a spatula. It is not advisable to use a mixer here, as the muffins may turn out too tough. Mix the dough with chocolate chips and distribute among the cells of the mold. Bake at 180 degrees for 25 minutes.
Adding any dairy to the dough automatically makes it more moist and heavier. If you love such muffins, then you will definitely bring this recipe to life.
Ingredients:
Preparation
Beat eggs with honey and sugar until airy and whitish in color. Add orange zest, vegetable oil, pumpkin puree to it and repeat beating. Mix the remaining dry ingredients and pour in the pumpkin and egg mixture. After beating again, add cottage cheese, mix and distribute the dough into the cells of the selected shape. Baking a standard size muffin will take about 20 minutes at 180 degrees; check the readiness of larger products after 20 minutes with a toothpick.
I thought that my pumpkin season was over, when suddenly my mother-in-law gave me a couple more small pumpkins. And I decided to use them for baking. The first victim of my experiments was half a pumpkin, from which I made cool eggless cupcakes. Personally, they seemed a little rubbery to me, but my husband said they were very tasty... and my two-year-old daughter silently stole the entire plate and quietly finished everything that was left on there. So I still recommend it)) Another cool thing is that the cupcakes turn out to be somewhat similar in structure to a sponge: when pressed, it immediately takes on its previous shape. First we need to make the pumpkin soft. To do this, you can simply put it in the microwave - I know many people do this. But since I was preparing the muffins primarily for the child, I wanted them to have at least some vitamins left in them. That's why I cooked pumpkin. Of course, it is better to cut the pumpkin into small pieces, this will reduce the cooking time.
When the pumpkin has become soft, turn off the gas, drain the water and mash the pulp with a masher. I was in no hurry with this point, because I still mixed the ingredients in the food processor.
Prepare the flour, mix it with baking powder. Add half the sugar to the flour. Melt butter or margarine. In the bowl of a food processor, beat the butter and half the sugar. Add cooled pumpkin. Mix thoroughly. While mixing, add milk. Lastly, add flour mixed with sugar. Mix thoroughly until smooth. Spoon the prepared dough into a mold greased with vegetable oil. I decided that it would be more convenient to make small cupcakes. Not many cupcakes are made from this quantity of products - I only got 9 pieces. Or in terms of a large form - one small cupcake (it makes no sense to take a large form).
Muffins with pumpkin filling are a fairly well-known recipe. By using the tender pulp, they achieve a more voluminous taste of the baked goods, while by correctly balancing the amount of sugar, they get sweet and relatively low-calorie muffins. This sweetness goes well with hot tea and is highly recommended for improving the general condition of the digestive system.

American pumpkin pie with cinnamon
In America, this dessert often decorates the table during the fall holidays, as well as at Christmas. The main difference from our cuisine is the great variety of spices used in American pumpkin pie: cinnamon, ginger, cloves, nutmeg and others. Thanks to this variety, the most delicate creamy pumpkin filling acquires an extraordinary spicy aroma. Ingredients: for the dough: 300 g flour, 1 egg, 100 g butter, 50 g margarine, 1 tbsp. spoon of sugar, 0.5 tbsp. tablespoons vinegar (or lemon juice), pinch of salt, 100 ml cold water, for filling: 500 g pumpkin, 350 ml heavy cream, 50 g sugar, 120 g brown sugar, 2 eggs, 0.5 teaspoon cinnamon, spices according to taste: ginger, nutmeg, cardamom, cloves, allspice, pinch of salt. Wash the pumpkin, remove seeds and fibers. Place the pumpkin on a baking tray lined with baking paper and place in an oven preheated to 180°C for about 1 hour. You can check the pumpkin's readiness by piercing it with a knife. While the pumpkin is baking, prepare the pie crust. Mix sifted flour, salt and sugar. Chop cold butter and margarine with a knife and add to flour. Using a knife, cut the butter into the flour until small pieces of butter remain in the dough. Lightly beat the egg with a fork, add to the dough and mix. Mix the vinegar with very cold water, pour into the dough and stir quickly. Form the dough into a flattened crust, wrap it in film and place it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to cool. Meanwhile, prepare the pie filling. Cool the baked pumpkin and remove the skin. Puree the pumpkin in a blender until smooth. Mix all bulk ingredients: both types of sugar, salt, cinnamon and other spices. Beat the eggs with a fork, add to the mixture and stir. Then add pumpkin puree, cream and mix again. Remove the dough, place it between two layers of plastic wrap and gently roll it into a thin round. Traditional American cinnamon pumpkin pie is baked in a shallow pan with shallow edges, approximately 23 cm in diameter. Using cling film, carefully spoon the dough into the pan, trim the edges, form sides, using a fork or your fingers to pinch. Prick the base in several places with a fork. Pour the filling onto the dough and place the mold in an oven preheated to 180°C for 1 hour. The readiness of the pie is checked with a wooden stick: if it is dry, the pie is ready. Let the cake cool, then place it in the refrigerator for 3 hours. Serve American pumpkin pie with cinnamon and whipped cream.
