Ingredients

  • 1 cup pumpkin puree (canned)
  • 2/3 cup maple syrup or honey
  • 1/4 cup 2% greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)
  • 1/4 cup veggie oil
  • 1 egg
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla essence
  • 1 2/3 cups whole wheat flour
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Step 1: Preheat and Prepare

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Line a muffin pan with muffin liners and set it aside.

Step 2: Mix Wet Ingredients

In a large bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, maple syrup or honey, and Greek yogurt.

Once combined, beat in the oil, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth and well-blended.

Step 3: Combine Dry Ingredients

In another large bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.

Ensure the dry ingredients are evenly mixed.

Step 4: Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients

Add the dry ingredients to the bowl of wet ingredients.

Stir until just incorporated; the batter will be thick.

Be careful not to overmix to keep the muffins light and fluffy.

Step 5: Fill Muffin Pan and Bake

Scoop the batter into the lined muffin pan, distributing it evenly between the muffin cups.

Bake in the preheated oven for 18 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Step 6: Cool and Serve

Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then remove them from the pan to cool completely on a wire rack.

Enjoy your delicious muffins!
