🥘 Ingredients

12 items

• 1.75 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoons Ground nutmeg
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 1 cup Canned pumpkin puree (unsweetened)
• 0.75 cups Brown sugar
• 0.5 cups Unsweetened almond milk (or other plant-based milk)
• 0.25 cups Coconut oil (melted)
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.75 cups Dark chocolate chips (dairy-free)

📝 Instructions

9 steps

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease lightly with coconut oil.

2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.

3. In a separate bowl, mix the pumpkin puree, brown sugar, almond milk, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until smooth and well-combined.

4. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

5. Fold in the dairy-free dark chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.

6. Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.

7. Bake the muffins in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean (a few melted chocolate streaks are okay).

8. Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes in the tin, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

9. Serve warm or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
