Ingredients
 

  • 1 cup 100% pure pumpkin puree
  • 1/3 cup natural peanut butter
  • 1/3 cup pure maple syrup or date syrup
  • 1/4 cup milk or milk alternative of choice
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup oat flour
  • 3/4 cup almond flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips, plus more for sprinkling on top (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350F. Line a muffin tray with 12 silicone baking cups or parchment paper liners and set aside.
  • Combine the pumpkin purée, milk, peanut butter, maple syrup, eggs, and vanilla extract in a large bowl. Whisk until well combined.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the oat flour, almond flour, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, baking powder and salt. 
  • Pour the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and mix until just combined; don't overmix. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Divide the mixture between the 12 muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 of the way full. Sprinkle the surface of each muffin with a few additional chocolate chips, if desired. Bake for 24-26 minutes, or until toothpick comes out clean with a few moist crumbs attached. Allow muffins to fully cool before removing them from the pan.
