Recipe--Pumpkin Muffins

One of our favorite parts of fall is pumpkin! We love everything from pumpkin pie, to pumpkin pudding, to delicious pumpkin muffins. This recipe is especially good when using fresh pumpkin, but is also quite delicious with canned pumpkin. We love having these muffins for our Saturday morning breakfast!
 
Pumpkin Muffins
 

¾ cup all-purpose flour
¾ cup whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
¾ cup sugar
1 cup oats
2 ½ teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
1 ½ cups packed pumpkin (from a 15-oz can)
1/3 cup oil
2 large eggs
Splash of milk
1 cup white chocolate chips (optional)
 
Preheat oven to 350°F. Stir together dry ingredients in large bowl. In separate bowl, stir together moist ingredients. Combine wet into dry and mix well. Stir in white chocolate chips. Pour into greased muffin pan. Bake about 25 minutes or until done. Makes about 9 jumbo muffins.

These look yummy! I "love" the taste of pumpkin, especially in the fall. In Texas, we do not have apple orchids, at least where we are at. I miss picking apples and eating cider donuts made with pumpkin. Though I am enjoying the warmer weather and all the sunshine! -S

Thank you so much for your comment, S! It really brightened my day. That's too bad that you can't have the typical "fall" experience in Texas. I would really miss the cider and donuts too! But as you pointed out, there are still benefits of warmer weather in Texas!
