The ingredients for Ginger and Chocolate Muffins are:

1 cup all purpose flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
1/4 cup ground flaxseeds
1 cup oatmeal
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp ground ginger
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips or chopped chocolate
1/2 cup finely diced crystallized ginger
1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
1 large egg
1 1/2 cups low fat buttermilk
1 tsp vanilla extract

Here is how you make Ginger and Chocolate Muffins:

Preheat oven to 375 F. Line 12 muffin cups with paper or silicone muffin liners.Combine all the dry ingredients and stir together. Add the chocolate and crystallized ginger and mix to coat with flour. Make a well in the centre and add the wet ingredients. Use a fork to scramble them together then mix into the dry ingredients until combined. Some dry streaks are okay, just make sure there isn't a big deposit of flour at the bottom of the bowl. The batter for these muffins is incredibly thick. As in, you're going to be POSITIVE there is not enough liquid in the recipe. It's okay. It works. I promise =] Scoop batter evenly into lined muffin cups (they might look overly full - again, it's okay. The muffins do NOT spread themselves to death in the oven) and bake for 20 - 25 minutes until lightly golden.Number of Servings: 12Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user KIWIFISH.
