You can’t go wrong with pumpkin! From our Pumpkin Muffin recipe with cinnamon streusel to this easy recipe for Pumpkin Bread, pumpkin is always a hit!
I can’t wait for you to try this new recipe. It is delicious!
Let’s get started!
Ingredients for pumpkin chocolate chip muffins:
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice (Try homemade pumpkin pie spice.)
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ground cinnamon, 1 teaspoon
- 1 cup canned pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling (Learn how to make Pumpkin Puree.)
- 1 ¼ cups granulated sugar
- vegetable or canola, ½ cup oil
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
How to make pumpkin chocolate chip muffins:
First, preheat oven to 350 degrees. Next, place liners in the muffin tin.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, baking soda, salt and cinnamon. Set aside.
In a large bowl, beat together pumpkin puree, sugar, oil and eggs until well combined.
Gradually add dry ingredients to wet ingredients until well combined. Fold in chocolate chips.
Divide batter into liners using a cookie dough scoop or large spoon.
Bake at 350 degrees F for 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Cool completely on a wire rack. Store in an airtight container.
Notes
Pumpkin Pie Spice can be replaced with ½ teaspoon cinnamon and ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg. You can also make pumpkin spice like we do.
Tips for pumpkin muffins with chocolate chips:
If you need more muffin cups, why not invest in some silicone baking cups. I love mine and they really do save you money in the long run and no need for paper liners.
Another thing I love to use is these baking scoops. I love these and they are so handy!
I use the largest baking scoop for muffins and cupcakes. They come in a set so they are perfect for all sorts of recipes.
They are very inexpensive and typically come in a set with different sizes. Amazon has some cookie scoops for very cheap. I have the three pack so that I can use these for cookies, cupcakes, muffins and even meatballs.
You can also make mini muffins. These would be fun for a party or really any time! If you don’t have a mini-muffin pan, I highly suggest you get one.
Mini muffins just simply taste great. They are faster to cook and easier to eat.
I love my Wilton mini muffin pan, but for just a few dollars more you can get a silicone pan.
As you can see this recipe is so versatile and can be made several different ways. Your family will never get tired of this recipe with all of these delicious ideas!
If you love pumpkin, try more tips:
We bake a lot of pumpkin recipes, so it saves time and money to make homemade pumpkin pie spice and pumpkin puree.
They are both very simple. I make a big batch of this spice and keep it on hand for all my Fall baking. Another tip is freeze pumpkin puree.
I feel like it saves me money and it is very quick and easy to make. Once you make it, you will have lots on hand to use all Fall for any of these amazing pumpkin dishes.
It really is not hard to make things from scratch like this Pumpkin Pie Spice and Pumpkin Puree. It can seem a bit daunting at first if you are used to buying store bought.
However, once you start it’s so simple and easy!
