Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins (vegan)

 

 

It looks like the weather jumped from summer to winter and missed fall completely. But while mother nature may not respect tradition, my kitchen does.

I got this recipe from my sister, who got it from someone else. After taste testing, I adapted the original recipe for round two and am satisfied with the results.

It should make about 18-24 muffins depending on your preferred muffin size.

 

Ingredients

• 1 medium banana
• 1/3 cup of unsweetened applesauce
• 1 cup canned pumpkin
• 1/2 cup vegetable oil
• 1 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1 1/2 cups of sugar
• 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
• 1 3/4 cups of flour
• 1 1/2 cups of semi sweet chocolate chips (check labels if you want the vegan stuff)

 

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
2. Peel and mash banana. Stir in applesauce, pumpkin, vegetable oil, and sugar.
3. Combine baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and flour.
4. Stir in chocolate chips.
5. Divide mixture into muffin tin and bake at 400 degrees F for 16 to 20 minutes.
6. Enjoy!
