Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins are the perfect way to start off your day, or a great snack for anytime of the day.

Just beware that it won’t take long for these to disappear! I have figured out that if I am making them to take somewhere, I better make a double batch and plan on leaving some home.

My family loves when pumpkin season comes around and these are definitely one of their favorite pumpkin dishes. I have to admit that we actually have these all year round because they are so popular at my house.

If you make these, they are sure to disappear. I am lucky if I have any left over for breakfast the next day. They do taste so nice and moist. If you love pumpkin, give them a try!

Who said that we could only eat pumpkin when pumpkins are in season anyway!?! I’m thinking that that is one of the best reasons for canning.

 

 

  • The best pumpkins for baking and cooking with, are sweet and flavorful.
  • The texture of their flesh is smooth.
  • As a side note, pumpkin purée manufacturer Libby’s breeds their own Select Dickinson pumpkins with extremely smooth texture.

 

 

Sometimes those cans of pumpkin jump out at me when I’m in the store and right into my cart, even during the summer and my family thanks me that they do.

  • “Pumpkin has high amounts of soluble fiber, which has been found to decrease total cholesterol and reduce LDL, the lethal [or “bad”] cholesterol,” says Alanna Cabrero, RD, with NYU Langone Health in New York City.
  • Fresh or canned pumpkin puree will do the job.
