Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Muffins
Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Muffins are the best recipe for fall! They are fluffy, moist have melty chocolate chips inside!

Chocolate chip pumpkin muffins will be your new favorite fall treat!

Before I started typing this post I double searched and double checked my site to make sure I didn’t already have pumpkin muffins on it.

Why HOW why HOW have I not given you a pumpkin muffin recipe yet?!! I mean sure, there are a kajillion other pumpkin recipes happening, but why no muffins? Where have I been on this?!

Welp, five years after I started this blog, I decided to give it a whirl. And, I have to tell you I am THRILLED about these fluffy wonders.

The top has the most deliciously mouthwatering moistness to it. The chocolate chips add a nice gooey chocolate burst. And the whole muffin has a nice fluffiness and spice to it.

If you’re loving pumpkin as much as me this fall, you have to try my pumpkin bread, or pumpkin roll cookies, or chocolate covered pumpkin donuts, or these pumpkin spice blondies! Omg, as I’m typing this I just realized I have so many pumpkin recipes on my site… maybe go to the top righthand corner and type “pumpkin” in the search bar for them all to pop up.

Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Muffins

Ingredients for These Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Muffins

  • pumpkin puree
  • eggs
  • coconut sugar
  • vanilla extract
  • blanched almond flour
  • arrowroot flour
  • baking soda
  • baking powder
  • pumpkin pie spice
  • cinnamon
  • sea salt
  • chocolate chips

How to make Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Muffins:

Whisk together the pumpkin, eggs, coconut sugar, and vanilla until smooth. Add the almond flour, arrowroot flour, baking soda, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, and salt to the bowl. Mix until combined.

Fold in the chocolate chips. Transfer the batter evenly into the muffin cups. Sprinkle additional chocolate chips on the top of each muffin. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until it rises and a toothpick comes out clean.

      You may be able to use oat flour, or just more almond flour. The texture will change a bit but still be delicious! xo
