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.

 Now go enjoy these Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins!

    I looove pumpkin (almost as much as I love your pumpkin dance)! One of my favorite things is going to a pumpkin patch in the fall and getting some pumpkins to cook with and to decorate around the house! I agree that there’s no need to limit them to fall cooking and baking 🙂

    I say YES –> pumpkin spice can live outside the month of October. I love pumpkin, I love spice and I love chocolate chips – so these can definitely be outside of the month of October. Love it!

    I so agree…I’ll take my pumpkin year-round, please. 🙂 Pumpkin + chocolate chips is one of my favorite cookie combinations, so I’m pretty positive that pairing would rank high as a favorite muffin, too. Love that you’re posting this outside the “traditional” pumpkin window.
