Healthy Pumpkin Muffins

Ingredients

• 1.75 cups white whole wheat flour
• ½ cup coconut sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
• 1/8 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
• 2 large eggs
• 1/2 cup maple syrup
• 1 cup pumpkin puree
• 1/2 cups almond milk (unsweetened)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/4 cup coconut oil (melted)

Steps

1. 1

   First, the preheat oven to 350ºF and line a muffin tin with muffin liners. We also suggest lightly spraying with cooking spray.

2. 2

   Next, beat eggs, coconut sugar, and maple syrup together in a large mixing bowl. Add almond milk, pumpkin puree, and vanilla and mix again.

3. 3

   In a separate bowl, combine dry ingredients together (except for walnuts).

4. 4

   Slowly add dry ingredients to wet and mix.

5. 5

   Finally, add in walnuts and coconut oil, and mix well.

6. 6

   Fill each muffin around 3/4 of the way full (these are going to be big muffins!). Then, sprinkle on more walnuts, if desired. Bake at 350ºF for 21-24 minutes or until the center is fully cooked.

7. 7

   Remove pumpkin muffins from the oven. Then, let cool for 5-10 minutes. Remove muffins from the pan and transfer them to a wire rack to finish cooling.

   Enjoy!
