Pumpkin Muffin Ingredients

There are no butter or eggs, and you can change up the flavor of the muffins by throwing in a handful of raisins or dried cranberries, crushed walnuts, flax or chia seeds, or shredded coconut.

Obviously my favorite variation is to add a generous handful of chocolate chips.

Eat them plain or topped with almond butter, coconut butter, or Vegan Cream Cheese.

The recipe is versatile, so if you don’t have pumpkin pie spice, just use additional cinnamon instead.

And if you can’t find Libby’s pumpkin at the store, feel free to sub roasted butternut squash or mashed sweet potato.

(Here’s the best way how to cook sweet potatoes.)

If you’ve only ever made pumpkin muffins with cake mix before, you’ll be shocked at how much better homemade tastes!
