Lately I've been so ready for the fall season to get here, this Texas heat is icky! So I was inspired to make pumpkin muffins which are my favorite and remind me of the cooler weather, I had some chocolate chips left over from a previous recipe so I added them into the muffin mixture. I also made them a tad healthier by substituting in a half a cup of oat flour rather than using all bleached white flour, you could also use apple sauce instead of the vegetable oil to make them even healthier but I was out of apple sauce. I could eat these muffins all day long they are so yummy and I'll pretend it's not over 100 degress outside, think cool thoughts. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!
Ingredients:
2 eggs
1 cup sugar
8 oz canned pumpkin
3/4 cup vegetable oil (or apple sauce)
1 cup white flour
1/2 cup oat flour
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1 cup chocolate chips
Directions:
1. Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees
2. Mix the eggs, sugar, pumpkin and oil together
3. Add all the dry ingredients and mix it all together
4. Fold in the chocolate chips and pour into muffin tins
5. Cook for about 15 minutes or until they look slightly golden on top
We LOVE these! I use all spelt flour and it makes them have a thicker texture. I think I'll try the oat flour next time. That sounds good! :)
