pumpkin chocolate chip muffins
The first time I tried these was about a year ago when my friend Karolyn made them for breakfast during a girlfriends retreat/reunion. Good memories (love you guys!). What I like about these muffins (besides the chocolate chips!) is that you barely taste the pumpkin. It's not overwhelming. Not even close. They're very light & fluffy ... not dense.
[ pumpkin muffins ]
1 c. flour
1 c. sugar
1 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon
2 eggs, beaten
1 c. ground pumpkin (canned)
1/2 c. cooking oil
1/3 c. chocolate chips
Mix together. Fill muffin cups and bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes.
Super simple. When the recipe is this simple, I definitely involve the kids. Porter & Claire helped me make some today and we're sharing with some neighbors when we go for a walk later this evening.

One more thing - thanks for always including pictures of your recipes. I'm such a visual person and having the picture helps so much! Thanks for such a great blog!

Yum! I happen to have all the ingredients on hand, so I know what I will be making tomorrow morning!
I am excited to make this. I have been wanting something light, and I like that its a muffin, instead of cake!

I made these tonight right when I saw your post and they were delicious! Thanks for the recipe.
wow. thanks for the recipe. i am adding it to my book, but since i am a lil' anal and want all my recipes to look the same, can you tell me the prep time and how many servings it makes (guessing 12). thanks!
I'm going to make these for my daughter's preschool Halloween party - Thanks!
schmoopWe have a favorite, very easy pumpkin muffin recipe that is actually low calorie.
1 Cake Mix (I like Orange)
1 small can pumpkin
1 egg
3/4 cup water
Mix together. Pour into cupcake pan. Follow directions on cake mix for time and temp. Enjoy!
These muffins look delicious! Can't wait to bake them. Thanks for sharing so many great recipes.
Thanks for sharing another recipe - I'm always looking for different things to try. I feel like I'm in a rut - always making the same dishes. It's great you share ideas that are tried and true.

Yum! Thanks for sharing another yummy & easy recipe. Gotta love "tried & true"! :)
I am definitely going to try these. I think I may add some homemade cream cheese icing to them. Mmmmmmm!! Great recipe Becky.
My mom makes pumpkin chocolate chip or raisin cookies that are a lot like those. They are light, too, with not too much of a pumpkinny taste. Your so sweet to share these recipes, I did the pretzel hugs and they were a hit!
Thanks!
YUMMY!!! I have a pumpkin choc chip cookie recipe and they are always a hit. I can't wait to make these muffins. Is the baking time for mini muffins or regular size? And, how many does it make?
Thanks so much for sharing!!! I can't wait to make them.
Mary
Thanks for the yummy recipe! Packaging - you mention that you share quite a bit with your neighbors. Do you have a creative way of giving these yummy treats away?
Hi Becky,
Just got your new book in the mail today from Amazon.com. I LOVE IT! I had to laugh at your layout about Costco. We are huge Costco shoppers - my husband has always said "If Costco doesn't sell it, you don't need it!" When I saw the same quote from your husband, I had to laugh!
Teresa
Mmmm... they sound divinely wonderful! Thanks for sharing the recipe, will give em a try!
You are The Evyl Girl with these recipes, woman!!!! Last night I went to 3 stores looking for Andes Mints to make cookies!! [everyone is overflowing with the Halloween candy, not the Andes Mints].
I love pumpkin cupcakes that really taste like pumpkin. Here's an even easier recipe:
1 box spice cake mix, any brand
1 can pureed pumpkin
Mix together well, using a little water to moisten if needed. Pour in cupcake tin. Bake according to box. Allow to cool and sprinkle with powdered sugar.
Now THESE are dense! And pumpkiny! Plus they have no fat [no eggs, oil, milk, etc] and each one has an entire serving of veggies and fiber! mmm!
Love the blog, even though it is a threat to my weaistline.

Hi, Becky! I uploaded my picutres of the frame/glass pebbles project to my blog - please take a look!

Thanks for the great idea!!!
Scrum!!! Can't wait till I get a chance to bake those too. I want to tell you about a (new to me) popcorn I bought in the grocery store the other day. (I was at "Wally Martus" but it's probably everywhere). Orville Redenbacher's Natural Buttery Salt & Cracked Pepper. IT'S SOOOO GOOD!!!! I remember you telling us about liking the Target chips with cracked pepper. (Those are so scrum too!) Just wait till you try this popcorn. I'm not a huge popcorn fan, but I want to have a bag of this everyday for a snack. (Gonna have to watch that!) I love it so!!! I can only find the snack size bags and they're easy to overcook, so I just put them in for 58 seconds. Hope you get a chance to try them.
P.S. Glad to hear Miss Claire is better. You wouldn't think germs could live in AZ as darn hot as it gets there! You're sweet to worry about your CK class. You did the right thing. Family should come first no matter who we are or what we do in life. But that's why we admire you so much!!!
I can't wait to make the pumpkin muffins! I especially love to add choco chips to everything too!
I really wanted to thank you for the pretzel hugs recipe. We got "booed" the other night (treats from an anonymous neighbor) and now we have to boo 2 other neighbors. I decided to make the pretzel hugs. My kids and I had such a great time making them (even my 4 year olds). Everyone was able to help unwrap the hugs, place them on the pretzels and even add the m&m's. Excellent family time making something for someone else. You are the best!!!
Okay, I love chocolate and I love pumpkin!! Yummo!
I tried these today...absolutely delish! Thanks!
Thanks for the recipe... made them this morning. Mmmmmmmmm good. :)
Thanks for another delicious recipe. The first pan of (mini) muffins was gone before the 2nd was out of the oven. I also got your book in the mail last week and LOVE IT!!! Thanks so much for another great product!
oh, these are yummy! my girlfriend made them last week...such a treat. she used wheat flour, and i couldn't tell the difference.
oh, these look good. I have never had pumpkin with something sweet. I don't think we can get canned pumpkin here. Can you use fresh pumpkin, or is there other stuff usually in the can?? Would love to have these for a stamping party I am having Saturday!
Tried them and love them! These will definitely be a new fall family tradition.
I made these for some friends, along with 2 big pots of coffee, Saturday morning. The only thing was that I didn't pay enough attention to the recipe and used a whole can of pumpkin so they were kinda dense, but they were a huge success and were delicious! I'll actually probably do it that way the next time too. Oh, and I did use a little more chocolate...one can never have too much! Thanks again for the delicious recipes you always share! :)
Becky, I made an even easier version today and they were delish. I thought I'd share it with you...http://ramonagreenspan.blogspot.com/2007/12/pumpkin-chocolate-chip-muffins.html
