I mean… can you really say you experienced fall if you didn’t bake at least one pumpkin something? For me, the answer is no, but this is a judgement-free zone so you do you boo ❤

Anywho, if you’re only going to whip up one pumpkin-themed something this year, I suggest you give these guys a go…. they’re as charming as they are delicious. Sending you all lots of pumpkin love from my kitchen to yours – keep your chin up, friends.


Don't let fall pass you by without giving these little bites of pumpkin goodness a try! They're easy to whip up, and are gluten-free (and vegan, of course!).

Prep Time15 minsCook Time30 minsTotal Time45 mins

Flax Egg
 2 tbsp ground flax seed
 6 tbsp warm water
Dry Ingredients
 1 ⅓ cups oat flour
 ¾ cup almond meal
 ½ cup coconut (or brown) sugar
 2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
 ¼ tsp salt
 ½ cup vegan dark chocolate chips (I prefer mini chips!)
Wet Ingredients
 1 cup pumpkin purée (canned or fresh)
 ¼ cup maple syrup
 ¼ cup avocado oil
Pecan Crumble
 4 tbsp almond meal
 2 tbsp coconut (or brown) sugar
 2 tbsp raw pecans, roughly chopped
 1 tbsp avocado oil
 ¼ tsp pumpkin pie spice

1

Preheat oven to 350°F.

2

Prepare your muffin tin by either lining with tin liners OR greasing your pan with oil (I use spray avocado oil).

3

In a small bowl, mix your ground flax seed with your warm water and set aside to gelatinize while you prepare your other ingredients (needs to sit for ~3 minutes).

4

In a large bowl, whisk all of your dry ingredients (except for your chocolate chips) together.

5

Add all of your wet ingredients, including your flax egg - mix until fully incorporated and your batter has come together.

6

Add your chocolate chips, and stir once more to finish your batter.

7

Divide your batter evenly between your muffin cups (you'll almost fill each cup).

8

Bake on the middle rack for ~30 minutes (or until a toothpick comes out clean).
