Pumpkin Muffins
I am not going to lie to you guys, sometimes muffins and breads intimidate me. I just need to get them absolutely perfectly and deliciously fluffy! You know?? And I can guarantee that these Pumpkin Muffins are that. They have that scrumptious fall flavor, are not too sweet, and make for a perfect breakfast or snack. These pumpkin muffins have a classic taste with a slight healthier spin to them. I’m talking a mix of ingredients like butter, whole wheat pastry flour, coconut sugar, and of course pumpkin. Balanced and delicious!!
What you need for these Pumpkin Muffins!
- Pumpkin: Staring off with the most obvious ingredient today, pumpkin! I just use canned pumpkin. I also don’t use the whole can in one go, so I just save the rest in an airtight container in the fridge.
- Butter: I am a sucker for butter in my muffins and breads! It just adds an unbeatable flavor.
- Coconut Sugar: Coconut sugar is absolutely one of my favorite sugars to bake with! It is refined sugar free, but also provides a similar taste to brown sugar in my opinion.
- Whole Wheat Pastry Flour: I also love love love whole wheat pastry flour! It adds a nutritional boost, but still makes a light and soft treat. It’s a win win!
- Almond Milk: I always use unsweetened vanilla almond milk, but you could just use any milk you like here!
- Eggs: Eggs for moisture and binding!
- Spices: Cinnamon and pumpkin pie space give these muffins that warm fall flavor we all know and love. Of course also salt, is that a spice?
- Baking Powder for a little rise and ultimate fluffiness.
How to make these Pumpkin Muffins!
- Set the oven to 350 degrees.
- Combine the pumpkin, eggs, almond milk, coconut sugar, and butter.
- In a separate bowl combine the whole wheat pastry flour, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder, and salt.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet and combine.
- Grease or line a muffin tin. Scoop the batter into the muffin tins, I did ice cream scoop sized muffins and it made 10 muffins!
- Top each muffin with a sprinkle of salt.
- Bake for 28 minutes.
- Let cool and enjoy!
