These pumpkin muffins are sure something special! A cozy blend of warming spices all wrapped up in a wholesome muffin, what more could you want?
As the weather is turning from crisp and cool to downright cold, I find my body craving more warm comforting foods.
While many comfort foods are loaded with ingredients that tend to weigh you down, these vegan muffins are made with simple ingredients that will nourish your body and fulfill that craving.
These muffins are sweetened ever so slightly to and will keep you satisfied without sending your body into a surge of sugar havoc.
The sweetness comes from apple puree and a little coconut sugar to add a depth of caramelized flavor.
I absolutely love serving these warm, slathered with almond butter and an extra sprinkle of cinnamon. I would also recommend a dollop of maple cashew cream or serve alongside some yogurt (dairy-free optional) topped with cinnamon and hemp seeds for a more filling option.

Hey there! This recipe looks awesome and am looking forward to making these. Two questions – how many muffins? 12? And also, you mention maple syrup in the narrative but it is not listed in the ingredients – how much?
Thank you!
Hi Anne,
thanks for the comment! You’re right, maple syrup is somehow not listed… I need to get in touch with the author of this recipe and ask her. Maybe, for now, just make the recipe as written above and then add as much maple syrup as you need to achieve the level of sweetness you’re looking for :)
Best,
Alena
these were delicious, thank you!
I’ve made these twice. Easy and quick. First time I did not have pastry flour & used all purpose – muffins still came out well. 2nd time, I used whole wheat pastry flour and consistency was basically the same. The 2nd time I added finely chopped walnuts, raisins and a tablespoon of evoo (we are not oil free). Both times very good! But I feel like something is missing, maybe chopped dates instead of raisins?
No clue how to measure a cup
Hi Veronika, I just added metric measurements! This was one of our first recipes, hence the imperfections :)
