It’s Fall y’all! This is the time of year where I get to drink and eat pumpkin flavored everything. I took a healthy pumpkin spice muffin recipe from BreeLovesBeauty and made it less healthy. These muffins are great for breakfast with a cup of black coffee. They are really simple to make and pretty tasty. According to my calculations, it’s about 355 calories and 38 carbs per muffin.

Ingredients

• 2 eggs
• 1/2 cup pumpkin puree (I used Libby’s 100% Pure Pumpkin canned pie filling)
• 1 cup almond butter
• 1/2 cup semi sweet chocolate morsels
• 1/4 cup pancake syrup (or maple syrup)
• 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
• 5 packets of Splenda
• 1/16 teaspoon salt (about a pinch)
• 1/16 teaspoon baking soda (about a pinch)

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
2. Wisk eggs in a bowl, add all other ingredients and mix with a spoon until blended.
3. Line muffin tray with paper cups and pour mixture to 3/4 cup full. Makes 7 standard sized muffins.
4. Bake for 25 minutes or when toothpick appears clean when inserted.
