Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F

  2. In a large bowl whisk the eggs, pumpkin, pure vanilla extract, and pure maple syrup until fully combined.

  3. Add the almond flour, baking soda, gluten-free baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, and chocolate chips to the pumpkin mixture. Mix until fully combined.

  4. Scoop batter into a lined muffin pan. The batter will be thick. I used a greased ice cream scoop.

  5. Bake for 26 minutes. Please watch your oven because all ovens are different.

  6. Remove and check centers with a toothpick to see if they are done.

Chef's Notes

Tips For The Perfect Paleo Muffins

For uniformed sized muffins, I always use a greased ice cream scoop. It makes it nice and easy to get the perfect amount in the baking pan.
I also like to use cupcake liners to keep the muffins from sticking to the pan.
Store in an air-tight container.
Muffins can be frozen for up to 3 months. Allow to completely cool and then place in a freezer bag. Allow to defrost at room temperature or reheat in the microwave for 30 seconds to 1 minute.

Loved them!!!! Easy and soft!!! Nicest gluten free bread I’ve ever eaten. I can’t thank you enough for your website and the time you put into it ❤️

Sarah ★ 5.0/5

Amazing! I am brand new to the Paleo world after an autoimmmune diagnosis. This was my first Paleo dessert recipe. At first I was so sad I would have to give up many things I love, but after finding this recipe and tasting the DELICIOUS results, I feel so much better! Thank you!

Ms. Rose ★ 5.0/5

Excellent! I used a little less maple syrup, and part GF flour/part almond since that’s what I had and it was awesome. Not too almondy. 20 min to bake in my oven. I don’t like dry baked goods, plus they keep baking after you take them out of the oven so definitely start checking them much earlier than the 26 she recommends.

Gluten eating and Gluten free college kid approved. I’m sure I will make these again very soon.
