Happy Halloweekend! I have yet to pick a costume but I guarantee I will be eating these incredible Grain Free Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins on Halloween night!
Seeing as Halloween is on a school night, I’ve decided to watch the classic ‘spooky’ movies the entire weekend leading up to Halloween night. The list includes: Hocus Pocus, Practical Magic, Casper, and Halloweentown I & II.
I hate scary movies so I am sticking with the horror-less movies. I will be cuddled up in my unrealistically soft blanket with a pumpkin muffin in one hand and Reese’s in the other.
Back to the wonderfully delicious pumpkin muffins: I’ve already made five batches of these within a week. As much as I hate this word, these muffins are so MOIST! *cringe* but they really are. It’s impossible to tell that they’re Grain Free. Plus, if you replace the regular sugar with coconut sugar they’re paleo!
I topped a few of these with nutella to make them more like a cupcake but they are just fine without. Bring this recipe over to Thanksgiving for extra fall festive treats.
