I love pumpkin chocolate chip muffins! My mom used to make these a lot but I would always feel sick after a few of them…happily, these didn’t make me sick (I think it’s got something to do with all the sugar and refined oil mom’s had…not that I blame her either—they were sure yummy!) Anyway, below is my modifications on a recipe I found and used. (At least I’m pretty sure this is what I did but can’t be sure since I forgot to write it down again…..sorry about that!)
To see a more recent version of these I made and how I made them gluten-free and use sweet potatoes too----see this post
Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins
1 1/2 cup whole wheat flour (or GF blend)
1/2 cup honey
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 cup canned/fresh pumpkin
1/2 cup milk (or dairy-free alternative)
1/4 cup (oil, melted butter/earth balance)
1 egg
1 cup chocolate chips (I used grain-sweetened chips)
In a bowl, combine the pumpkin, milk, egg, oil, and honey. Add the dry ingredients (including chocolate) and mix until just barely combined.
Bake at 375 for about 20-25 minutes.
Those look delish!
ReplyDeleteThanks Alisa! I think so! :) Try them out and let me know what you think! :)
ReplyDeletethose look wonderful!! I'd use sweet potato -- can't wait to try them :)
ReplyDeleteThanks SnoWhite! You will have to let me know how you like them! Sweet potato sounds wonderful too! I wish I had more of them hanging around! :)
ReplyDeleteI made these on Friday night and my family went nuts! I followed the directions exactly. Next time I'll probably only bake them for 18 minutes (instead of 20) but that's because we like muffins to be a bit "doughy".
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting this. I shared it on my FB page and I'm planning on posting a link on my blog in a couple of Thursdays.
Yum Yum!
I highlighted this post on my blog today. I did change the oil to applesauce and it was amazing.
ReplyDeleteHere it is if you want to check it out. I've rightly credited you with the recipe and photo source so there is some good link love!
Thanks again for sharing!
