Who knew you could substitute sweet potato in place of pumpkin? These are very moist and delicious. Personally, I could skip the chocolate chips and eat them without.

They are moist and delicious without the milk.

PUMPKIN CHOCOLATE CHIP MUFFINS



PUMPKIN CHOCOLATE CHIP MUFFINS image

Categories     Quick & Easy

Yield 11 medium muffins

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 large egg
1/2 cup pumpkin puree
1/2 cup Silk Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk (or your favorite milk)
1/3 cup light brown sugar, packed
1/4 cup maple or pancake sryup (I used sugar-free lite pancake syrup)
1/4 cup canola or vegetable oil
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
pinch salt, optional and to taste
3 cups old-fashioned whole rolled oats (do not use quick-cook or instant)
2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 cup semi-sweet mini chocolate chips (mini recommended, but regular-sized chips may be substituted)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350F. Spray a Non-Stick 12-Cup Regular Muffin Pan with floured cooking spray or grease and flour the pan in 11 of the cavities (I don't prefer the cosmetic look of paper liners and they may stick); set aside. To a large bowl, add the first 9 ingredients (through optional salt), and whisk to combine. Add the oats, baking powder, and stir to combine. Add the chocolate chips and stir to combine. Using a large cookie scoop or 1/4-cup measure, evenly distribute the batter into 11 of the cavities (don't use all 12, muffins will be too skimpy). Each cavity should be nearly full since muffins don't rise much. Bake for about 23 minutes, or until tops are set both visually and when touched lightly, and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, or with a few moist crumbs dangling, but no batter (toothpick test is tricky because you'll likely hit chocolate patches). Don't overbake because muffins will be prone to drying out. Allow muffins to cool in pan for about 20 minutes before removing and placing on a rack to cool completely. Don't rush the cooling process and attempt to remove muffins from pan too soon because they'll be prone to breaking. It's much easier to remove them when cooled completely. Muffins will keep airtight at room temperature for up to 5 days, or in the freezer for up to 6 months.

Tips:

  • Use fresh pumpkin puree for the best flavor.
  • Be sure to drain the pumpkin puree well before using it in the muffins.
  • For a sweeter muffin, add an extra 1/4 cup of sugar.
  • For a spicier muffin, add 1 teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice.
  • Be sure to mix the batter until just combined. Overmixing will result in tough muffins.
  • Fill the muffin cups only 2/3 full. The muffins will rise as they bake.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Conclusion:

These pumpkin chocolate chip muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for fall. They are moist and flavorful, with just the right amount of sweetness. The chocolate chips add a touch of richness and decadence. These muffins are perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. They can also be frozen for later. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy recipe, give these pumpkin chocolate chip muffins a try. You won't be disappointed!
