Pumpkin Muffins!
These Pumpkin Muffins capture delicious fall flavours in every bite. They make a perfect breakfast with a hot cup of coffee or a perfect snack for on the go. These muffins are soft and moist, with a slight crunch from the added walnuts.
Gluten-free, refined sugar-free, and vegan, these muffins are allergen friendly and a healthier alternative to most muffins. If needed, the walnuts could be left out or subbed for chocolate chips or dried fruit. The base of the muffins is made with oat flour and whole oats, making it a super simple alternative to regular flours. Most people have oats on hand, and this recipe doesn’t require a bunch of different ingredients to substitute for the gluten. These muffins come together in minutes and are the perfect treat to enjoy in our last few weeks of fall.
