Jim calls desserts "evil food," and I think it's hilarious. Lately I've been trying to steer away from baking evil food, but today I couldn't resist autumn's calling, and whipped up a batch of pumpkin chocolate chip muffins.
I changed the recipe quite a bit to make it more healthy.
Instead of 4 eggs I used 2 eggs and 1/2c eggbeaters.
Instead of 1.5c canola oil, I used 1c applesauce and .5c canola oil.
Instead of 1.5c sugar, I used 1c sugar.
Instead of 2c chocolate chips I used 1c mini chocolate chips.
This made a significant difference in the nutritional breakdown.
147 calories vs. 254 calories
6g fat vs 16g fat
22g carbs vs 27g carbs
2g protein (same)

Why would you cut the sugar!?! Sugar is AMAZING!!! And why would you limit the chocolate chips?!?!? Just run 3 miles! And eat 3! Then you'll burn off the difference.
