Truly Delicious, These Double Chocolate Pumpkin Muffins Taste Amazing While Keeping It Healthy

Ingredients:

1 cup creamy almond butter (store-bought or homemade)

1/2 cup pumpkin puree

1/4 cup cocoa powder

2 whole eggs

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup coconut sugar

1/4 cup maple syrup

1/2 cup dark chocolate chips, plus more for topping

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 350ºF and line a muffin tin with 12 baking cups. In a large bowl, stir together the almond butter, pumpkin, cocoa, eggs, baking soda, salt, vanilla, coconut sugar, and maple syrup. Once a smooth, thick batter is formed, fold in the dark chocolate chips.

Divide the batter among the 12 cups, then top each one with a sprinkling of extra dark chocolate chips, if desired. Bake at 350ºF until the muffins have risen, and the edges are firm to a gentle touch, about 20 minutes.

Allow the muffins to cool completely before serving, and store any leftovers at room temperature, uncovered, for up to 4 days, or in the fridge for up to a week. I imagine these muffins would also freeze well, but there weren't any left for me to test that theory on-- we ate them all quickly!
