HEALTHY PUMPKIN MUFFINS

/
 

Hello Pumpkin season! If you’ve been around here for a while you will know without a doubt that fall is my JAM. Cozy sweaters, fires, leaves changing, crisp weather, pumpkin spice lattes and allllll the fall baking.

I’ve shared these amazing Pumpkin Cream cheese muffins before. They are to die for but they aren’t your everyday muffin. Now that I have two toddlers who eat everything in sight, I wanted to find a healthier pumpkin muffin…and you guys, I found it!

 
 

And it has chocolate chips too! So dang good. Also cornstarch is added to the flour to help the muffin become more tender!! You guys. My family gobbled these up. I wish I made a triple batch.
