Dry Ingredients:

  • 1.5 cups all-purpose flour (scooped and leveled)
  • ½ cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1.5 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • Optional: ¾ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (regular or mini)

Wet Ingredients:

  • 1 cup unsweetened pumpkin puree
  • ¼ cup plain unsweetened almond milk (or any kind of milk)

  2. Combine all the dry ingredients in a medium bowl and set aside.
  3. Whisk together all the wet ingredients in a large bowl.
  4. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
  5. Spoon the batter into the muffin tin, filling each about ¾ of the way full.

  7. Let cool for 5 minutes in the tin, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • You can customize these muffins by adding nuts instead of chocolate chips, or leave them plain.
  • Make your own pumpkin pie spice using our recipe.
  • For gluten-free muffins, swap the all-purpose flour 1:1 with gluten-free all-purpose flour.
  • Want pumpkin bread instead? Pour the batter into a greased loaf pan and bake at 350ºF for 45 minutes to 1 hour. Enjoy your pumpkin delights!
