Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins

This recipe came from Recipezaar, but since it called for one and a quarter cups of oil I altered it.

30 muffins

4 eggs
2 cups sugar
1 (16 ounce) can pumpkin
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup vegetable oil
3/4 cup applesauce (or you can use more pumpkin, which I did & they came out great)
3 cups whole-wheat pastry flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice
1 teaspoon salt
12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips

In large mixing bowl beat eggs, sugar, pumpkin, vanilla and oil until smooth.
Mix dry ingredients together and mix into pumpkin mixture. Fold in chocolate chips.
Fill greased or paper-lined muffin cups 3/4 full.
Bake at 400 F for 16-20 minutes.
