(George Stella's Eating Stella Style  - Simon & Schuster Paperbacks)

Yield:  6 servings   Net Carbs:  6 gram per serving
Prep:  15 minutes   Cook:  25 minutes

1 1/2 cups Almond Flour*
3/4 cup 100% pure canned pumpkin - NOT PIE FILLING
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
3 large eggs
3/4 cup sugar substitute
1 1/2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract - No sugar added
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup chopped cranberries (fresh or frozen, no sugar added; may use chopped walnuts instead)


1.  Place the baking rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

2.  Mix all the ingredients in a bowl with a wooden spoon until well blended.  Fill the 6 paper-lined muffin cups about two-thirds full with the batter.

3.  Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the muffin tops turn golden brown and a toothpick stuck in the center comes out clean.

4.  Remove the muffins from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes.  Serve warm or at room temperature, and refrigerate any leftovers in a sealed container.
