preparation
-
Preheat the oven to 200Β°C (top and bottom heat). Halve the pumpkin and remove the seeds with a spoon. Place the pumpkin halves cut-side down on a baking sheet and bake for 30-45 minutes until soft.
-
Remove the pumpkin halves from the oven and let them cool slightly. Then scoop out the flesh with a spoon. You only need 250g for the muffins; you can use the rest for pumpkin soup or pumpkin puree.
-
Melt the butter over low heat and stir it into a bowl with the xylitol. Combine the flour with the SHEKO vanilla powder , baking powder, nutmeg, cinnamon, and salt. Gradually stir in the eggs , then the cooled pumpkin puree , and finally the flour-spice mixture .
-
For the topping , mix together pumpkin seeds, chopped walnuts, or dried fruit β whatever you like. Fill each muffin cup two-thirds full with batter and sprinkle with a tablespoon of topping.
-
Bake the protein pumpkin muffins in the oven on the middle rack at 175Β°C (convection) for 20-25 minutes . You can find the perfect time with the toothpick test: simply insert a wooden toothpick into the batter. If no batter sticks to it when you pull it out, the muffins are done.
Enjoy your meal!
Egg-free alternative
Mix 2 tablespoons of ground flaxseed with 6 tablespoons of water and let it soak in the refrigerator for at least one hour. It should now have an egg-like consistency. Stir the flaxseed mixture well again and then incorporate it into the dough as directed in the recipe.
