Why You’ll Love Healthy Pumpkin Muffins
These Healthy Pumpkin Muffins are the ultimate trifecta: warm, comforting and perfectly sweet. Added bonus? They are completely gluten- and dairy-free! Yasssssss 🙌 – my gluten and lactose-sensitive queens can finally live their best PSL life. The oat flour gives these muffins a dense but incredibly moist crumb, while the maple syrup adds a natural sweetness that doesn’t overpower the pumpkin 🎃 flavor. Not to mention the ingredients are more wholesome than game night at your grandma’s house. Whether you enjoy them as an on-the-go snack or as a little afternoon treat, you won’t get enough! Definitely feel free to double or triple the batch and keep a stash in the freezer—they’re that good.

🥣 Next, add the oat flour and baking powder.
🥄 Now, gently stir all the ingredients together.
