Moist and DELICIOUS Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins! You won’t believe how easy this recipe is! My family considers these the best pumpkin desserts! These are easy to turn into a gluten free recipe too!
Pumpkin Muffins With Chocolate Chips
I’m on a muffin kick right now. My favorite muffins of the moment are the Fluffy Chocolate Chip Muffins and these Pumpkin ones. I swear they can’t last in my kitchen with me around. These chocolate chip muffins here make for a happy breakfast.
For this chocolate chip muffins recipe, I’m using brown sugar instead of regular white sugar. I find that brown sugar adds a bit of a depth to muffins and brownies.
I start by mixing my wet ingredients. Later in I sift the dry ingredients and combine it with the wet ones. I have added cloves, cinnamon, and nutmeg in my dry ingredients. That’s why these chocolate chip muffins are bursting with flavor and some sweetness.
Add in the chocolate chips to the batter. Pour into a muffin tray. For added goodness, I sprinkle in chocolate chips at this step too. This makes the chocolate chip muffins look so much better when they come out. You can instantly see the chocolate chips. So much eye-candy!
Need More Pumpkin Desserts?
I still have some pumpkin puree left in the freezer from the fall garden pumpkins. Do you know what that means? More Pumpkin Desserts to make!
Some of my all-time favorite pumpkin desserts are my Pumpkin Whoopie Pies, Pumpkin Scones and 5 ingredient healthy Pumpkin Cookies.
Turn This Into a Gluten Free Muffin Recipe
You can easily turn these chocolate chip muffins into a gluten free muffin recipe. Simple, just swap the flour. Choose gluten free flour instead of the regular flour. You can do this with any other flour-based recipe.
Going gluten free isn’t rocket science. Adopting a gluten free lifestyle is very easy. Some gluten free flours you can use are Almond flour, Buckwheat Flour, Oat Flour, Brown Rice Flour.
I personally prefer almond flour in all my gluten free recipes. It adds nuttiness to the recipe.

Alissa says
do you cook/steam the pumpkin upfront? in other words what do you mean by puree? ๐
Pamela says
Hey Alissa, pumpkin puree is the same thing as canned pumpkin. You can buy it in the store or make your own, I always think fresh tastes better and it’s so easy to make, here’s how: https://brooklynfarmgirl.com/2013/08/21/how-to-make-fresh-pumpkin-puree/. Enjoy!

The muffins were really good! They were quite dense and I would put more seasonings in next time. However it was a great use of my leftover pumpkin puree!

I am joining the Pumpkin Year Round Train. All Broad!!!!!! Let’s ring the bell and blow the whistle. For some reason I didn’t really like pumpkin when I was a kid. But then when I was in college at an ice cream shop, they gave me a tiny spoonful of pumpkin ice cream to taste. BANG! My love of pumpkin was born with trumpets
and a choir. Especially like it that you recommended tea with it. ๐ ๐
