These muffins are SO GOOD! My family devoured this whole tin in about 24 hours - and all of us had at least a few. They are incredibly tender, perfectly and lightly sweet, and those little bits of chocolate throughout give you a nice texture and flavor contrast. Mostly I couldn't get over just how incredibly moist and tender these muffins bake up. Pumpkin adds such incredible texture to baked goods!

I love making batches of mini muffins - because they bake for such less time, I feel like it's easier to keep the interior of the muffins tender, and they're poppable so you can just have a bite or two at a time. They're great sizes for little kiddos too, my daughter loved this batch!

  • Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Mini Muffins

    Ingredients
    1 egg
    1/2 cup granulated sugar
    1/2 cup pumpkin puree
    1/4 cup + 2 TBS vegetable oil
    3/4 cups all purpose flour
    1/4 teaspoon baking soda
    1/2 teaspoon baking powder
    3/4 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
    1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/4 - 1/2 cup semisweet mini chocolate chips
    cooking spray

    Directions
    1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spray a (24-well) mini muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
    2. Combine the dry ingredients in a bowl: flour, baking soda, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, and salt. Whisk to combine and make a well in the center.
    3. In a separate bowl combine: egg, sugar, pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Whisk to combine. Pour into the well in dry ingredients and whisk batter until just combined. Stir in the mini chocolate chips just until incorporated.
    4. Divide batter into mini muffin tin (each well about 2/3 full).
    5. Bake in the preheated oven 11-13 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and muffins are golden and baked through.
    6. Cool in tin about 5-10 minutes, then turn out onto cooling rack to complete cooling.

    4. Pumpkin and chocolate is very tempting to me right now- enough time has passed since autumn that I am back on the pumpkin train. All of the pumpkin baked treats are especially moist and yummy!
