One-Bowl Healthy Double Chocolate Pumpkin Muffins

Sarah Remmer, RD
Pumpkin, rich cocoa powder and velvety, chocolate chips come together to make these double chocolate pumpkin muffins! Not only are they nourishing and satisfying, but they’re also made in one bowl with only 13 minutes prep time. I recommend baking a double batch - these disappear fast!

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup pumpkin purée
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup nut or seed butter
  • 1/2 cup ripe banana mashed
  • 1/3 cup maple syrup
  • 1/3 cup chocolate chips
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 cup oat flour
  • 1/2 cup cocoa
  • 1/4 cup chia seeds ground or not
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Additional chocolate chips
  • Coarse or flaky sea salt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F, and line a standard muffin pan with 12 liners.
  • To a large mixing bowl, add all of the wet ingredients and stir, until well combined.
  • On the top of the wet mixture, layer the dry ingredients, but don’t stir them in! Keeping them on top of the wet, gently whisk the dry ingredients to combine them. Then, fold the incorporated dry ingredients into the wet mixture, using a spoon or spatula. 
  • Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups. For a pretty presentation, you can smooth out the top of each muffin with the back of a spoon, then add the toppings: more chocolate chips and a bit of coarse or flaky sea salt. 
  • Bake for 20 to 22 minutes, until lightly firm to the touch. Transfer the muffins to a cooling rack to cool completely, or use my trick and simply flip each onto its side right in the pan.
