One Bowl Gluten Free Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins (V, GF, DF): a one bowl recipe for perfectly moist pumpkin chocolate chip muffins made with whole ingredients. Vegan, Gluten Free, Dairy Free.
As I write this, my kitchen is filled with all the fall scents: pumpkin, maple, cinnamon, cloves and… PIE. Yep, I said it. And I don’t regret it. Don’t mind me, something about a new week kicked off with pumpkin chocolate chip muffins makes me feel like rhyming.
But maybe it’s also because… PIE. Ladies, gents, friends, there’s just something about pie that makes life so much better and tastier. Amiriiiiiight? Anywho, currently, I’m in the early, early stages of testing pumpkin pie (spoiler alert!!) and it’s been a real treat. It’s totally rekindled my love of baking.
Whaaaaaaaa you say? How could Beaming Baker not LOVE baking? Well, sometimes baking doesn’t love Beaming Baker. Side note: now I totally feel sufficiently weird referring to myself in the third person. Ahem.
Back on point, baking can be quite the trial. In fact, it can still lead to a few very unsightly, unlovable and straight up sad-looking temperature tantrums in the kitchen. This may or may not have happened during the trials for my chocolate banana bread and pumpkin bread. But don’t tell anyone, okay? 😉 Yep, temperature tantrums.
I totally just read that last line to Erik and we both looked at each other like, “what the fajitas is a ‘temperature tantrum?'” Then, Erik said, “Is the OVEN getting mad??” But seriously, it probably is. Had enough from the likes of me. It was pushed passed it boiling broiling point.
I’m talking about promises to never bake again (yeah, right), extensive eye-glares at my jars of ground cinnamon and other spices (they know what they did), finger-wagging at my measuring cups (innocent bystanders, let’s be honest), and utter and complete loss of faith in humanity—as it relates to baking, of course.
And when I’m done being dramatic, and chide myself for being so immature and impatient, I actually find that I learned something… whaddya know? Learning. How cute. 😉
Making pie was no exception, but I’ll get into that when/if I ever conquer the beast that is pumpkin pie. In the meantime, allow me to introduce you to my One Bowl Gluten Free Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins. Is there really a word in that recipe name that you don’t like?
Send me an email and I’ll remove it immediately!!!! J/k. No takebacks, no returns, all sales final at Beaming Baker. –> Yep, still sounds awkward. Third person, what can I say?
Anywho, these pumpkin chocolate chip muffins came together so easily and beautifully. Maybe because all of the embarrassing, ego-tarnishing trials (and extreme tribulations) already happened with the recipe I based it off of: my gluten free vegan pumpkin bread. Also one bowl. Also one, um… Number one!!! Ohhhhh, just let me use one… one more time. 😉
Meanwhile, learning actually happened during those pumpkin bread trials, which then, in turn, became winning at these muffins. As my sister Jenny likes to say, in her most stern teacher voice, “Learning is not about things being easy, it’s about working through what’s hard and growing.” It all really pays off in the end. I’ve got to call my sister and tell her she was right!! Yay!!! .
These muffins are SO good, y’all. First of all, you can make them in just ONE bowl. Yep, one. Apparently my favorite word of the day. Second of all (boy does listing items by numbers start to get tedious by the second number), they’re perfectly moist and sweet.
The thing is (yep, I’m dropping the numbered listing—I feel it’s best this way), it really gives me the heebie jeebies when pumpkin breads and muffins aren’t thoroughly cooked. Like… if it’s a cross between pumpkin butter and a can of pumpkin. Totally makes me question whether or not it’s actually cooked, which then creeps me out, which then kills my appetite—a very hard thing to do, I might add.
But these muffins. These muffins… SO perfectly moist. Just moist enough to taste like cake, and just light enough to still qualify as muffins. And those dollops of chocolate chips… what could honestly be better? There’s hardly a better reason to sneak a few bites of chocolate in the morning than with these pumpkin muffins.
Lastly, because all of this learning has apparently turned me into a lecturer: that domed top. Yep, it’s exactly what you wish for. So gorgeously round, so plumpishly high. Alright, I was stretching it with the word ‘plumpishly.’ But trying saying it out loud. It’s a real hoot!
So whip up a batch for your loved ones, your next fall/autumn party, or, really just for you. You’ll simply love these. And if you’re not convinced yet, or just love you some bulletpoints, allow me the pleasure of lecturing telling you all about their awesomeness…
These One Bowl Gluten Free Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins are:
- made in just one bowl, because dishes are SO not cool
- perfectly moist and rich like cake
- vegan, gluten free, dairy free
- generously dotted with chocolate chips
- plant-based and allergy-friendly
- made with ingredients you can feel good about
- DOMED top, ‘nuff said
Before you jet off to the kitchen, tell me all about your plans this fall. Are you throwing any super amazing parties? Are you gonna decorate your mantel with leaves and ghoulish-hands? I’m not gonna lie, I’ve already planned out a Halloween treats menu for my fam. 🙂 I can’t wait to hear what you think of this recipe!
Sending you all my love and maybe even a dove (or raven… because: Halloween!!!). xo Demeter ❤ .

Pin RecipeDescription
One Bowl Gluten Free Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins (V, GF, DF): a one bowl recipe for perfectly moist pumpkin chocolate chip muffins made with whole ingredients. Vegan, Gluten Free, Dairy Free.
Ingredients
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup 100% pure pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie mix)*
- ¼ cup melted coconut oil
- ¼ cup + 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- ¼ cup + 2 tablespoons coconut sugar
- 1 flax egg (1 tablespoon ground flax + 3 tablespoons water, whisk together, set for 10 mins)
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups gluten free oat flour
- ½ cup almond meal
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Add-in Ingredients
- ¾ cup vegan chocolate chips
- Optional topping: 2 tablespoons assorted vegan chocolate chips (mini and regular)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Place cupcake liners in a standard 12-muffin pan. Set aside.
- Add the wet ingredients to a large bowl: pumpkin, coconut oil, maple syrup, sugar, flax egg, and vanilla. Whisk until well incorporated.
- Add the dry ingredients: oat flour, almond meal, baking soda, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice and salt. Whisk together until just incorporated, making sure no flour patches remain. Fold in chocolate chips.
- Pour batter evenly into the prepared muffin pan. Optionally, sprinkle with 2 tablespoons chocolate chips. Bake for 20-25 minutes.
- Transfer to a cooling rack, and allow to cool for 1 hour or until completely cool. Enjoy! Storing notes below.
Notes
-*Make sure your pumpkin puree is at room temperature. If it’s cold, it will solidify your melted coconut oil.
– Adapted from my One Bowl Gluten Free Vegan Pumpkin Bread and my Vegan Chocolate Banana Bread (V, Gluten Free, Dairy Free).
– Storage notes: Cool completely, then store in an airtight container for up to 1 week at room temperature.
– These muffins freeze well. Wrap in parchment paper and store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 1 month. Allow to thaw at room temperature for 30 minutes, or heat in the microwave in 20-second increments until warm.

October 14, 2018 at 9:14 pmI’m absolutely loving your recipes and am so grateful for your work and your sharing these. I’m on the go a lot and don’t have much of an appetite, but love snacking on healthy muffins when I’m busy. I keep dishing out $5-6 at my local gluten free bakery for muffins and my wallet is NOT happy. Your recipes are so easy to follow, so lovely, and so reliable. Thank you x 1 million!
Demeter | Beaming Baker says
October 15, 2018 at 12:45 pmOmigosh!! Sarah, I’m sending you so many big hugs of gratitude for taking the time to write your lovely comment. 🙂 I’m beyond pleased that you’re loving my recipes! Also, I FEEL ya on not wanting to shell out that much moola for one muffin! Hugs & the biggest “you’re SO welcome” from me. 🙂
Naomi says
October 13, 2018 at 8:05 pmLove these muffins! I have made them at least a dozen times and each time they come out perfect! I have even substituted cooked squash for the pumpkin and they came out great. They make perfect mini muffins too. Thanks again!

Demeter | Beaming Baker says
October 15, 2018 at 12:36 pmWoohoo!! That’s so wonderful to hear, Naomi. 🙂 Ooh, I love that the cooked squash worked too! Thank YOU for taking the time to let me know. Hugs!
Virginia says
September 29, 2018 at 7:16 pmWOW! These are seriously the best pumpkin muffins I’ve ever made. I was a little scared they would turn out weird and not rise as many GF recipes have for me but these are moist and rose a lot! I made sure to have all ingredients room temp (that helps!) and fluffed up the flour as I measured. I used 1 organic egg (I’m not vegan) instead and maybe that helped too. I didn’t have maple syrup so I used 1/4 c agave and the extra 2 T i used molasses which really added to the pumpkin spice flavor! I also used organic raisins in place of the chocolate chips! Will make again for sure!!!

Demeter | Beaming Baker says
October 2, 2018 at 2:03 pmWoohoo! . I agree, flat/collapsed muffins are the worst. I’m loving all your subs and swaps. I’m so happy you enjoyed the muffins Virginia!
Nicole Bowden says
April 29, 2018 at 5:38 pmThese turned out great! i did 1 cup of oat bran + 1 cup of brown rice flour (cause I ran out of oat) and also subbed the sugar products with date syrup that I made (9 dates + 1 1/4 cup warm water, soak 30 mins and blend) and everything turned out amazing! I was totally on the hunt for a way to use up my pumpkin puree and this totally hit the spot!

Demeter | Beaming Baker says
May 1, 2018 at 12:38 pmNice, love the improvising Nicole! So glad everything turned out well. And yay for putting that leftover pumpkin puree to good use! ☺️
Leticia says
January 2, 2018 at 12:05 amI can’t wait to try these. I just need a substitution for the almond meal. Can GF all purpose flour work? I’m new in the GF diet, so would enjoy trying these out for a quick breakfast, and dessert!
Demeter | Beaming Baker says
January 3, 2018 at 9:10 amHi Leticia, I know a few readers have tried subbing the almond meal with GF all purpose flour with success. My best guess is to substitute the almond meal with half the amount of GF all purpose flour. Let me know how it turns out. Good luck!
Leticia says
January 4, 2018 at 6:12 pmThank you for the substitution recommendation. I went with the exact recipe and used almond meal. Delicious! My two daughters (4 and almost 2) already enjoyed one each. Well… and so did I! Thank you so much for this healthy, GF, dairy-free recipe! We’re going to try the chocolate chip cookie recipe next. Can’t wait!
Demeter | Beaming Baker says
January 5, 2018 at 10:21 amWonderful! When the kiddos like it, you know you have a winner. 😉 Thank you for taking the time to let me know how it turned out. Can’t wait to hear what you all think of the chocolate chip cookie! 🙂
Lisa says
November 4, 2017 at 11:18 amLoving you for making all those mistakes so we don’t have to! These were fantastic. Used brown sugar and real egg and came out great – perfect for me (GF), my son (dairy-free) and my daughter (just plain picky). Mmmm!
Demeter | Beaming Baker says
November 6, 2017 at 4:05 pmHaha! Yep, that’s my job! I’m so happy to hear that these muffins turned out so well for you. Happy to hear that your subs worked as well. 🙂 Also, you totally made me crack up with the “just plain picky” comment. Lisa, kudos to you for taking the time to make something for that everyone enjoyed!
Margie says
October 1, 2017 at 3:53 pmI am (maybe not so) ashamed to say that I usually get swept up in the pumpkin fall craze and so naturally, I had to make these. I followed the recipe to the T and they did not disappoint—pumpkin, chocolate, moist perfection. I made them last night and I might need another batch to make it through the work week! Or hide them from my husband! Hahaha! Thank you for sharing your recipe!!
★★★★★
Demeter | Beaming Baker says
October 2, 2017 at 2:35 pmDon’t be ashamed! Just enjoy it–and it you feel embarrassed, just think of me going 2000% crazier over pumpkin and instantly feel better. 😉 Hiding from your husband: LOL! That’s when you know you have a winner. I’m so pleased that the two of you enjoyed my recipe. Thank you for taking the time to let me know. 🙂 Happy baking!

October 1, 2017 at 1:48 pmHi Demeter,
I made this recipe this morning and these muffins came out amazingly! I followed your recipe exactly and have already eaten more than one muffin. (Ok, more than two. But I will not go into exactly how many. LOL). They were delicious!!
As a side note, I have loved watching your blog grow. You continue to impress me with your incredible creative recipes and fun blog posts. I feel like I know you! Thank you for providing us with healthy, easy ways to enjoy yummy baked goods. Please keep it up!

Demeter | Beaming Baker says
October 2, 2017 at 2:33 pmHi Lucy! So happy to hear that you’re enjoying one (or two) of these muffins! 🙂 Thank you SO much for your incredibly kind and sweet comment–it’s truly made my day (and it’s Monday, so that’s kind of a BIG deal hehe). Can’t wait to share more recipes and stories with you. I hope I never let you down. <3
Julie DeAngelis says
October 1, 2017 at 11:52 amI was SO excited for this! I have had a craving for chocolate chip muffins ever since my husband stopped by and bought a loaf. Unfortunately, I could not eat it because I am GF and DF. So when I found your recipe, I felt like I had hit the lottery!
Major bummer!! It came out awful! I did make a few adjustments but didn’t think it would cause havoc. I used a real organic egg instead of a flax egg, since I am not vegan. And I couldn’t find gf oat flour so I used gf coconut flour that I had.
It was SO dry!!! I added more melted coconut oil and even added almond milk just to give it some moisture. It filled up the muffin tin and I still had batter left so I put the rest in a loaf pan.
I baked it for the full 25 minutes. The only way I can eat it is to slather organic butter on it and heat it up and then eat with a spoon. I know, pretty sad.
Please help me! Did my adjustments really mess it up? What can I do? 🙁
Signed,
Desperate for gf/df chocolate chip pumpkin

Demeter | Beaming Baker says
October 2, 2017 at 2:27 pmHi Julie, the problem is the coconut flour substitution. Without question, it caused a major imbalance in the dry/wet ratio of this recipe. Coconut flour is VERY absorbent–about 3x more absorbent than oat flour. I feel ya though! I had to learn the hard way when I first started using coconut flour. Let’s just say that it’s very… unique. 😉 Hope you get to try the muffins again and won’t judge it by the initial coconut flour sub. Happy baking! 🙂
Julie DeAngelis says
October 2, 2017 at 8:45 pmThank you!!! I just learned an important lesson about coconut flour. A friend told I could have used my gf oatmeal(quick oats) in a blender to make oat flour.
Tracie Heldreth says
September 29, 2017 at 12:07 pmThese look so good!! I just made them (still in oven). The batter was really thick. I substituted the almond meal for a gf flour blend, left out a couple tbsp of the oat flour as suggested in another comment. Is the normal batter that thick? Triple checked recipe. Thanks. Can’t wait to try them.
Demeter | Beaming Baker says
October 2, 2017 at 2:15 pmHi Tracie! How’d the muffins turn out? 🙂 I use the same batter in this recipe: https://beamingbaker.com/gluten-free-maple-pecan-pumpkin-muffins-gf-vegan-dairy-free-refined-sugar-free-video/ You’ll be able to see exactly what the texture should be like in the video above the recipe. Hope they turned out great! 🙂
Tracie says
October 2, 2017 at 10:16 pmThese muffins turned out great! They were a hit with my whole family. Delicious!! Put a little coconut oil on them and they were more like dessert. Best gf baked good I’ve had for a long time. I will definitely check out the recipe link. Thanks so much for the wonderful recipe! Looking forward to trying more of your recipes.☺

Demeter | Beaming Baker says
October 4, 2017 at 3:47 pmWonderful! I’m so happy to hear that the entire family enjoyed them. 🙂 Thank you for taking the time to report back. Can’t wait to hear what recipe you try next!
Kajien says
September 16, 2017 at 6:23 pmThese muffins look amazing! Would I be a able to substitute the oat flour? I tried oat flour in a different recipe and didn’t really like the texture. Everything I have made from your blog has been really good so far !
Demeter | Beaming Baker says
September 18, 2017 at 4:02 pmHi Kajien! Did you try oat flour in one of my recipes or someone else’s? If it was for someone else, you might like the texture in mine (never know ’til you try, right?). A few readers have recently told me they’ve tried gluten free all purpose flour with tasty results. Either way, let me know how they turn out! 🙂 P.S. So happy to hear you’ve been enjoying everything here!
Jaimie says
May 16, 2017 at 11:49 amThis looks like a fantastic recipe, love the simplicity of the ingredients. I can’t eat oats, any recommendations on what I could replace the oat flour with? Thanks!
Demeter | Beaming Baker says
May 17, 2017 at 8:11 amHi Jaimie! Thank you. 🙂 You can try using a gluten free all purpose flour, but be sure to leave out a tablespoon or two of flour. It tends to be a bit drier than oat flour. You might need to adjust the flour a bit more, depending on what level of moistness you like in your muffins. Enjoy! 🙂
Chantelle K. says
February 23, 2017 at 10:05 pmReally great recipe! Followed it exactly and really enjoyed the results. Tonight I’m subbing raisins soaked in boiling water for ten mins and upping the spices. Thanks!!
Demeter | Beaming Baker says
February 24, 2017 at 6:57 amThank you, Chantelle. 🙂 Oh gosh, adding those soaked raisins and increasing the spice sounds amazing! Enjoy! And it’s absolutely my pleasure! 🙂
Antonieta says
January 25, 2017 at 9:25 pmHi Demeter, I would like to know if I can replace the almond flour for brown rice flour, and maple syrup? Can I use cold pressed oil? I am from Argentina and some ingredients I can not find. Thank you very much. They look delicious!
★★★★
Demeter | Beaming Baker says
January 26, 2017 at 8:35 pmHi Antonieta, okay, let’s see. Almond flour: I’ve never tried using brown rice flour as a substitute, but it should be okay. The texture will be a bit different, but somewhat similar. Maple syrup: can be replaced with honey. Cold pressed oil: Are you asking if you can replace coconut oil with any cold pressed oil? If so, I think it should be fine. As long as you keep in mind that any oils you use with a strong aroma/flavor would affect the taste of the muffins (for example, olive oil). With all of these substitutions, I’d recommend going into this recipe with an open mind. 🙂 Baking experimentation can be tricky, but lots of fun! Let me know how it turns out! 🙂
Antonieta says
January 27, 2017 at 9:46 amOk, thank you Demeter, I’ll try. I’ll tell you later how it came out 😀
Erin says
January 5, 2017 at 7:02 pmThese are more like cookies! They are the best pumpkin muffins we have ever have! My kids were hesitant to taste pumpkin muffins and they loved them!
★★★★★
Demeter | Beaming Baker says
January 7, 2017 at 9:28 amThat’s awesome, Erin! 🙂 It can definitely be a challenge to get the kiddos to enjoy pumpkin. I’m so happy that you and your family enjoyed these. Thank you for letting me know. Happy baking! 🙂
Stephanie says
November 30, 2016 at 1:09 pmI made these a couple weeks ago and they were so good. I’m really bad about seeing new recipes online and trying them but forget what recipe I used when I want to make it again. Thankfully, I’d “pinned” your recipe and last night I made them again. Just wanted to let you know HOW GOOD they are! Today, I’ve printed the recipe to go into my “tried and true” recipe collection so that I won’t have to look far next time 🙂 Thanks for this wonderful muffin recipe!

November 30, 2016 at 5:01 pmThank goodness for Pinterest, right? 🙂 I’m so happy that you enjoyed these, Stephanie! Great idea on printing this out to avoid the search later. I have been there and it’s not cute! 😉 Thank you so much for taking the time to let me know how these turned out. Can’t wait to hear what you try next! Happy baking. xo

October 2, 2016 at 1:37 pmHaving baked for three years for my baking company, I TOTALLY understand falling out of love with baking (even if for just a little bit). Totally normal!! In any case, these muffins are proof that you should ALWAYS continue to keep going!! Look at those chocolate chips just calling my name! Love these yummy muffins Demeter!

Pumpkin and chocolate all in a delicious muffin, I really wouldn’t ask for anything more.

September 28, 2016 at 11:09 amOh Demeter – I wish I could click my heels and magically be transported into your kitchen filled “with all the fall scents: pumpkin, maple, cinnamon, cloves and pie” AND these decadently moist One Bowl Gluten Free Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins! Gosh girl, I’d be like a kid in a candy store because – me think you be way too hard on yourself and even these “Fails” of yours would have me devouring them – only, I have half a mind to not let on on how good they really would be because then you’d have to interrupt my devouring and have to take pictures and all that other food blogger jazz! 🙂
This fall I don’t have any big plans other than make football party food and take it over to friends places so I can eat ALL the football food while everyone else enjoys the game! Yup – that and to try and talk my daughter into going trick or treating – I have 32 days to do so!
Sending you all positive vibes so that your next pie attempt is an uber hit and your weekend is the bestest!

Have an amazing weekend! xoxo
Megan - The Emotional Baker says
September 28, 2016 at 7:14 amI used to not be a big pie fan either. Mainly because every time I tried to make one I had a big messy failure on my hands. But just in the last few months I’ve grown to love them. I’ve been doing a little fall pie experimenting, too. Can’t wait to see yours – I know you’ll get them right!!
On to these muffins, so perfect and beautiful! As soon as my pantry’s replenished with pumpkin, I’ll have to try these 🙂
Demeter | Beaming Baker says
September 28, 2016 at 9:40 amPie is no joke! That’s for sure! 😉 I’m so happy to hear that you’ve been doing some experimenting! Thanks for the vote of confidence, Megan. Can’t wait to hear how you like these! 🙂

Second also, can’t wait to give these a try, obviously .

September 27, 2016 at 12:30 pmDemeter!! You know how to speak to my soul with all this chocolate and pumpkiny goodness. Any fewer chocolate chips atop those beautiful domes would be unacceptable.
Also, I love when I actually learn something from baking, it’s a nice feeling! I’m going to need some of these muffins in my life for breakfasts on the go…which is every day. I won’t lie to us. 🙂 have a great week!!

All things pumpkin, all things Fall for me…and chocolate just adds that little sumthin’ sumthin’. Pinned, of course. Hope your week is going week, my friend!

September 27, 2016 at 3:56 pmThose kitchen disasters just increase our stamina in the kitchen, I say! Hahaha. Totally worth it–we just have to hang in there and remember that, instead of darting side-eye glares at the cinnamon. Lolol. Have a great week! Thanks friend! 🙂

September 27, 2016 at 3:53 pmYes, I do! Especially because we share a VERY important Lifetime Membership to the Chocolate Lovers’ Club. 😉 Yeah! All the extra chocolate for you, Karebear. <3

September 26, 2016 at 5:46 pmThese are the most plumpishly perfect pumpkin muffins I ever did see! (Got something to say about that autocorrect? I didn’t think so. Sorry, just had to get sassy with autocorrect…it wanted to fight me on “plumpishly”.) And while I love pumpkin pie and am massively looking forward to yours, pie does not have pockets of gooey melty chocolate nor is it plumpish like a poofy pumpkin muffin. The mini AND big chips were a very good choice, variety is the spice of life after all. Although right now it seems like pumpkin spice is the spice of life…hmmm perhaps it’s both. Anywho, I just might throw a temperature tantrum if I don’t get to taste one of these plumpish pastries soon, so will you send a few my way!? While I wait for the pie 🙂 P.S. It’s cool if you and baking sometimes don’t get along because you always have the beaming part covered!☀︎ xo

September 27, 2016 at 3:43 pmYou stick it to autocorrect and you stick it plumpishly! Er… something. You go and be sassy! I’m always for it! 😉 Variety is totally the spice of life! Lol. See, this is why we’re friends. 😉 It’s probably both. 😉 Sending some your way. Beaming: Guess what I’m doing right this second? <3

September 26, 2016 at 3:41 pmYou’re working on a pumpkin pie? YES, I can’t wait to see it! Ugh, I’ve had many trial and errors in the kitchen, and many more to come, haha!
Chocolate chip pumpkin muffins – what can I say? I LOVE muffins, pumpkin, and of course chocolate chips! These look like the most perfect muffins for breakfast this autumn! 🙂

September 26, 2016 at 4:53 pmYep! But it might just be working on me… Jury’s still out on that one, Marsha. Lol. Such a relief to hear that a culinary genius like you actually has trial and errors in the kitchen. 😉 Thank you so much my friend! xo

September 26, 2016 at 11:45 amMy plans for fall are learning to walk again after my hip surgery last Friday. The sooner I can walk unassisted, the sooner I can fight with my oven to make more good recipes like these yummy pumpkin filled muffins!
Demeter | Beaming Baker says
September 26, 2016 at 4:51 pmAw darn, I’m sorry to hear that you’re going through that. Thinking good thoughts for you for a quick recovery. 🙂

September 26, 2016 at 11:12 amLol. You are such a hoot, D to the Meter! Seriously, your blog is my happy place. 😉 BUT, did you really want me to send you an email because *ahhh hem* pumpkin. Bahahahaha. Seriously though, as someone who doesn’t love pumpkin, you are really going to make me question myself this season – I can already FEEL it! Prime example, these muffins! They look all sorts of perfect, mi-lady! I know! I JUST SAID PERFECT… and there is pumpkin involved!! What the whaa? I’m thinking you need to send me a dozen of these and I will probably become a pumpkin convert. As my bestie, I think you are going to make me become a better person (read: I may become friends with pumpkin) PINNED! Cheers, sweets! xoxo

September 26, 2016 at 4:51 pmD’aww… you’re gonna make me blush, I’m sure of it! . D’oh on your pumpkin… situation. 😉 I know I can turn you around! But if I can’t, I can still make ya something else. After all, that’s what besties do for each other. <3 Perfect: I'll take it! Well, I already know you make me a better person, so I can only hope I do the same for you. <3 Mwah! xo

The taste smell and comfort of it all!

September 26, 2016 at 8:55 amThe scent of cozy fall spices is one of my favorite things about fall. And PIE! Hooray for pie! I love finding new variations on pumpkin pie, so I can’t wait to see your recipe. And you’re so right, baking can take a lot out of you, but it’s so worth it when you create happy accidents, or a new creation. And these muffins look spot on, Demeter! Pumpkin muffins are just about my favorite, so I love the sweet chocolate chips in here. Makes such a delicious breakfast or dessert! Pinned, of course! Hope your Monday is off to a wonderful start!
Demeter | Beaming Baker says
September 26, 2016 at 4:16 pmTotally one of the very best things about fall. 🙂 Pie: it’s all in the details, right? Cross your fingers for me and wish me luck on this pie mission! 😉 Happy accidents are the best. I need more of those. Lol. Thank you for your sweet words, G. Happy Monday! xo
