Breakfast Pumpkin Muffins

These muffins are great for breakfast; I serve them up with a pat of cream cheese YUM!!



INGREDIENTS
1 1/4 cup gluten free all-purpose flour (I use the Cloud 9 brand)
1/2 cup coconut palm sugar
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
Pinch cloves
Pinch salt
1 cup pumpkin puree
1/4 cup any type milk beverage
1/4 cup maple syrup
2 eggs (room temperature)
2 tablespoon melted butter (not hot)
2 tablespoons melted coconut oil (not hot)
1/4 cup flax seeds (Optional)
1/4 cup raisins (Optional)

DIRECTIONS
Whisk together the first 9 ingredients in a large bowl.
Whisk together the remaining ingredients in a separate bowl; stir into the dry ingredients.
Stir in flax seeds and/or raisins if using.
Coat 12 silicone muffin cups with non-stick spray and fill with the muffin batter.
Place the muffin cups on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated 400 degree Fahrenheit oven for 20 minutes.
Remove from oven and allow cooling.
Enjoy!

  1. I made 24 lovely mini muffins without raisins. Also replaced the coconut sugar with Splenda I would have loved the coconut sugar, but I did use almond coconut blend milk. Warm, aromatic and delicious. The spices with the pumpkin are certainly classic and with good reason. Thank you for a lovely recipe.
