SERVES: 12 MUFFINS | ACTIVE TIME: 10 MIN

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 1/2 cup pureed pumpkin
  • 1 cup plain, organic Greek yogurt
  • 4 large eggs, pastured
  • 1 cup almond butter
  • 1/3 cup maple syrup
  • 2 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp turmeric
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 cup walnut pieces to crumble on top

PREPARATION

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a muffin tin.
  • Put everything except baking powder and walnuts in blender or food processor and mix until smooth. 
  • Add the baking powder and pulse on low until just combined.
  • Pour the batter into the muffin tins, filling each cup ¾ of the way full. Sprinkle to the top of each with walnut pieces.
  • Bake ~25 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean and the tops are golden-brown.
  • Let cool, then dig in!
  • Note: Store muffins in fridge or freezer – they do not last more than 2 days sitting out.
  • Second Note: Since they’re flourless, these muffins are quite moist, in a delicious way – just don’t expect the typical dry muffin crumble.
