Whole Wheat Pumpkin-Applesauce Muffins
"This is a great recipe for those times when you have half a can of pumpkin left over. The muffins taste great right from the oven, but are even better the next dayif they last that long! Kids love them and it's a good way to sneak fruits, veggies, and fiber into their diets."
