    🥘 Ingredients

    Ingredients for Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Muffins

    Flour: use all-purpose flour

    Brown Sugar & Granulated Sugar: these muffins are sweet, but not too sweet

    Cinnamon & Pumpkin Pie Spice: warm fall flavors

    Baking Soda: help to lighten up the dense pumpkin muffins

    Eggs: helps to add height and texture

    Pumpkin Puree: adds pumpkin flavor and makes the muffins really moist

    Vegetable Oil: any neutral oil works, you can also use canola oil or melted coconut oil

    Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips: you can also use mini chocolate chips or white chocolate chips

    🔪 How to Make Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Muffins

    4 steps to make Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Muffins

    1. Mix Dry Ingredients: Mix together flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, and baking soda together in a large bowl.

    2. Mix Dry Ingredients: Mix the eggs, pumpkin puree, and vegetable oil in a medium bowl.

    3. Combine: Add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix. Once everything is mostly combined, fold in the chocolate chips. Do not overmix.

    4. Bake: Divide batter among the muffin tins. Bake for 20-22 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.

    🥡 How to Store

    Once the muffins have cooled completely, store any leftovers in an air-tight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the fridge for up to 7 days.

    🙋‍♀️ FAQ

    Is 100% pumpkin the same as pumpkin puree?

    Pumpkin puree can also be called 100% pure pumpkin. When buying your pumpkin puree, make sure the only ingredient on the ingredient list is pumpkin. There should not be any seasonings or sugar.

    Why are my pumpkin muffins gummy or wet on the bottom?

    If the muffins are not cooked long enough, they will become a little gummy. Since pumpkin muffins are so moist, it can be hard to judge when they are done baking. Use a toothpick to make sure the muffins are baked all the way through.

    👩‍🍳Tips & Tricks

    It might be hard to tell when the muffins are done by eye since the batter is dark. Use a toothpick to make sure the muffins are done baking.
