  • Total Time: 30-35 minutes
  • Yield: 12 muffins

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ½ teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a muffin tin with paper liners or greasing.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, brown sugar, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
  4. Gradually fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Gently fold in the chocolate chips evenly throughout the batter.
  6. Spoon the batter into the muffin cups, filling about ¾ full.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Remove from oven, let cool for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely or serve slightly warm.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, add a pinch of cloves or allspice in the dry ingredients.
  • You can substitute dairy-free options for oil and chocolate chips to make these muffins dairy-free.
  • Make sure not to overmix the batter to keep the muffins fluffy and tender.
