Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins

It’s spooky season! 🎃👻 And you know what that means – pumpkin everything. Pumpkin is such an easy ingredient to incorporate into baking recipes, and I’m guilty for loving how many amazing pumpkin drinks and desserts come out during this time of year (not ashamed to admit that the PSL is absolutely delicious). What better way to celebrate fall than some delicious pumpkin chocolate chip muffins? You can easily take out the chocolate chips if you’d prefer just a simple pumpkin muffin, but I think adding them makes it into a really tasty dessert. You could try nuts too! Plus I think pumpkin is a vegetable so this is definitely healthy, right?

Ingredients
  

  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 15 oz can of pumpkin puree
  • 1 1/2 cups canola oil
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips (1 12 oz bag)
  • 1 tbsp pumpkin spice blend

Pumpkin Spice Blend

  • 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/2 tsp ginger
  • 1/4 tsp allspice

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F. Place muffin wrappers into two muffin pans.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat the eggs, sugar, pumpkin puree and oil on medium speed until smooth. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, pumpkin spice blend, and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients slowly, mixing constantly until the whole mix is well combined. Gently fold in the chocolate chips.* Fill the muffin wrappers about 3/4 full.
  • Bake the muffins for 15-17 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool the muffins in the pan for ~10 minutes and then move to a wire rack.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

*You can save a few chocolate chips and place them on top of the muffins before they go in the oven if you want them to be more visible after baking!
