Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Mini Muffins
Super soft, moist and delicious. These mini pumpkin chocolate chip muffins are a cross between muffins and scones. They aren't overly sweet and go perfectly with a cup of coffee (or hot chocolate -- no judgement here).
Ingredients
- 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour unbleached
- ⅓ cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- ¾ teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon ground ginger
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ¼ teaspoon cloves ground
- ¼ teaspoon ground allspice
- 12 tablespoons butter cut into small dice, cold unsalted
- ½ cup mini chocolate chips
- ¾ cup buttermilk
- ½ cup pumpkin puree canned
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°. Spray mini muffin tins with vegetable spray and set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves and allspice. Whisk to combine.
- Add The butter to the flour mixture and use a pastry blender or two sharp knives, to cut the butter into the dry ingredients until they resemble coarse crumbs.
- Stir in the chocolate chips and toss to combine. Set aside.
- Combine the buttermilk and pumpkin puree and whisk together until smooth. Add the pumpkin mixture to the flour mixture and stir until well blended and no dry bits of flour remain.
- Scoop the batter into mini muffin pan and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until lightly golden and a cake tester comes out clean. Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before removing them. Best served warm.
