Healthy Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins

This time of year I am always craving anything made with pumpkin! Why is that? �Not really any other time of year. �Are you like that too or is it just me?

I am in love with these Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins! �Made with a few healthy swaps for super yummy and moist treat or snack.

Adding the chocolate chips only adds less 40 calories …my guess. (1 TBSP of chocolate chips I used had 80 calories and I used less than 1/2 TBSP with my 8 chips per muffin. �They can, of course, be left out completely and these muffins are still absolutely delicious.

I also have started using Oat Flour a little more when I was experimenting with Gluten Free recipes. � (I like Bob’s Red Mill brand).

INGREDIENTS, yields 12�muffins.(I double the recipe when I make them. They go quickly or you can freeze them too. 🙂

Dry Ingredients
1 cup of oat flour (or whole wheat flour if you’d like)

1 �TBSP Cinnamon

1/8 tsp ground ginger

1/8 tsp ground cloves

1/8 tsp allspice

1/8 tsp nutmeg

1 tsp baking soda

1/4 tsp baking powder

1/4 tsp salt

Wet Ingredients

2 eggs

1/3 cup melted coconut oil (or butter will work as well but not as healthy)

1/2 cup honey (raw or local is best) TIP: if you pour the honey into the same measuring cup after the oil, it pours out much easier)

1 cup pure pumpkin

8 semi-sweet chocolate chips per muffin (Completely optional but extremely yummy!)

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line muffin tin with liners.

2. Mix all dry ingredients together is a medium size bowl.

3. Mix all wet ingredients together in another medium size bowl.

4.� Gently stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients careful not to over mix.

5.� Scoop spoonfuls of the mixture into muffin liners so they are all evenly filled.� If you want to add the little extra yumminess, I add about 8 chocolate chips to each muffin….because I want to make sure I get a chip with each bite! :-)� You can gently push the chocolate chips down into the muffin with a toothpick or finger.

6.�Bake for about 30 – 40� minutes or or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.� Cool 10-15 minutes before eating.
