["Preheat oven to 350u00b0F.", "Rinse and drain beans thoroughly. (You can use pinto, red kidney, or white kidney beans- they offer the right ""sweetness"" to the muffin, and they aren't silky smooth like butter or navy beans); add to food processor.", "Add all other ingredients to food processor.", "Blend until smooth, batter will be runny.", "Portion into muffin pan sprayed with cooking spray. (Can use paper-lined muffin pan as well).", "Bake for 30 minutes.", "Additions/Substitutions: use applesauce instead of pumpkin; make savory by omitting sugar and spices, adding pureed squash, add chopped spinach, add shredded cheese (or nutritional yeast) and herbs; flour could be added, up to 1 cup (half regular, half whole wheat); for texture, cooked quinoa or oats could be added to the batter.", "These do freeze well. I put two in a baggie, and I put the lot of baggies in a zipper-sealed bag in the freezer. Pop them in the microwave for a few seconds and you're good to go!"]

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
