I went to the zoo yesterday and had the best day ever. Sometimes, you just have to listen to the little 6-year-old voice inside of you, and do something you haven’t done in years!
After returning from the zoo, I decided to make a big batch of pumpkin muffins to gift to a friend of mine (if you work at Signature bank and you got to try one of my muffins, please let me know what you think!). I made them very healthy and flavorful and I could barely stop myself from eating them as they came out of the oven! My whole house smelled like warm pumpkin pie, even this morning after I woke up!
Pumpkin is one of those things that people are using in abundance during the fall, yet all of the recipes are loaded with cream and butter. So, here’s a way for you to jump onto the pumpkin-everything bandwagon with way less guilt. If you want to reduce the calories even more, just leave off the crumble!
*This is the combo of spices that works best for me. If you do not like a particular spice or don’t have it in your pantry, just omit it. Or, if you only like one or two of them, increase the amount a bit and make these your own!
