Healthy Pumpkin Muffins | Easy Pumpkin Muffin Recipe
Servings: 12 muffins
Ingredients
- 1 3/4 cups Whole Wheat Flour
- 1 tsp Baking Powder
- 1 tsp Baking Soda
- 1/2 tsp Kosher Salt
- 2 tsp Pumpkin Pie Spice
- 1 tsp Ground Cinnamon
- 1 cup Pumpkin Puree
- 1/2 cup Honey
- 2 Eggs
- 1/3 cup Olive Oil
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
Instructions
- Prepare the Oven. Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease with oil spray.
- Mix Wet Ingredients. In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, eggs, maple syrup (or honey), oil, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Add Dry Ingredients. Stir in the whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, and salt until just combined. Do not overmix to keep muffins tender.
- Add Optional Mix-ins. Fold in nuts or chocolate chips if desired.
- Divide Batter. Scoop the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
- Bake. Bake for 20-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Cool & Serve. Let muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.
