Ingredients

  • 2 ⅓ cups all purpose flour or 10 ounces (284g)
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder (14g)
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda (3g)
  • ½ teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice or ½ teaspoon cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon cardamom and ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree (244g)
  • 1 cup cane sugar (200g) or coconut sugar or brown sugar
  • ⅓ cup coconut oil (80g) melted (or any oil)
  • ½ cup + 2 tablespoons non-dairy milk (150mL) such as soy milk or coconut milk
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 cup vegan chocolate chips tossed in 2 tablespoons flour

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350℉/180℃ and grease or line a 12-muffin pan.
  • Add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, sugar, and spices to a mixing bowl, and mix to combine.
  • Add the pumpkin puree, coconut oil, and non-dairy milk to a bowl and mix until combined, about 2 minutes. Then add in the vanilla extract.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients one cup at a time, mixing on medium-to-low speed until just combined. Make sure not to over-mix. The mixture will be pretty thick.
  • Stir in the chocolate chips with a spatula.
  • Scoop the batter batter into each muffin pan until about ¾ full. The muffins will rise as they bake, so don't fill the tins completely.
  • Bake for 20-22 minutes, until the muffins spring back when touched.
  • Remove the muffins from the pan and cool on a wire rack, then serve.

Notes

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container on the counter for 4 days, in the fridge for a week, or in the freezer for 3 months. If the muffins get dry, heat them for a few seconds in the microwave or toasted oven.
  • You can replace the all-purpose flour with the gluten-free flour of your choice to make this a gluten-free muffin recipe.
