these muffins are moist and delish… I took the photo with a pumpkin I had but opted to use canned pumpkin puree for the recipe… partly because I am lazy and partly because it tastes better in my opinion in baking… if you are going to use up a pumpkin before it rots, I’d suggest roasted in the oven or in a soup…
pumpkin seed muffins
Ingredients:
- 1 cup nutriblend flour
- 1 tbsp chia seeds
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/8 tsp ground ginger
- 1/8 tsp allspice
- 1/8 tsp ground cloves
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 3/4 cup pumpkin puree
- 2/3 cup sugar
- 3 tbsp coconut oil, melted and cooled
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- 1 1/2 cups grated carrot
- 1/4 cup raisins
- 1/4 cup pumpkin seeds
Directions:
- in a bowl, whisk the dry ingredients
- in a mixer, beat pumpkin puree, sugar, oil, vanilla and eggs
- add the dry ingredients
- stir in carrots and raisins
- using an ice cream scoop, scoop mixture into lined muffin tins
- press pumpkin seeds on the top of each muffin
- bake at 375 degrees for 22 minutes or until done in the centre
- they can store in a sealed container for up to three days
This is such a good idea! I can’t get enough of pumpkin seeds. Yum!
