Ingredients

  • 1 can pumpkin puree
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup almond milk or milk of choice
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil melted and cooled
  • 1/4 cup applesauce
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 2 cup white whole wheat flour
  • 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips plus more for garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350° and spray a muffin tin with nonstick spray, or use muffin liners; set aside.
  • Melt the coconut oil in the microwave then set it aside and allow it to come to room temperature.
  • Next, whisk the pumpkin, eggs, maple syrup, milk, applesauce, and vanilla together in a large bowl; then, stir in the cooled coconut oil.
  • In a separate medium bowl, stir the flour, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together. Then, pour the dry ingredients into the wet and fold together with a rubber spatula. Once the flour has almost disappeared, fold in the chocolate chips and mix until combined, being careful not to over-mix.
  • Distribute the batter amongst the prepared muffin tin, then sprinkle a few extra chocolate chips on top. Bake the muffins for 20 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Leave the muffins in the tin for 5 minutes, then remove and place onto a wire rack. Enjoy!
