  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 12 muffins 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups pumpkin puree
  • 2 cups whole wheat flour or all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil or melted butter
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together pumpkin puree, Greek yogurt, honey or maple syrup, eggs, and melted coconut oil until smooth.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix to keep muffins tender.
  5. Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
  6. Bake for 18-22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let muffins cool slightly before removing from the tin.

Notes

  • You can substitute Greek yogurt with regular yogurt or non-dairy alternatives like coconut or almond yogurt.
  • For a keto or low-carb version, replace flour with almond flour and use a sugar substitute.
  • Optional: Fold in chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or dried fruit for extra flavor.
