Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cup flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup low fat buttermilk
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon canola oil
- 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips plus extra for sprinkling
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a small bowl, mix the dry ingredients - flour, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, and nutmeg.
- In a large bowl, mix pumpkin, brown sugar, buttermilk, egg, and oil.
- Add dry mixture to the wet mixture. Stir just until combined, DO NOT over mix. Mixture will be a bit lumpy.
- Fold in chocolate chips.
- Line a muffin tin with muffin liners. Fill each liner about 3/4 of the way full. Sprinkle extra chocolate chips on top if desired.
- Bake for 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
- As soon as muffins are cool enough to touch, remove from pan and transfer to a cooling rack. Let muffins cool to room temperature.

Notes
- Gluten free option:
- Because this has so little flour, it is EASY to make gluten-free and have it still taste like the original. You can use any 1:1 flour substitute, but my FAVORITE mix (by far) can be found by following this link.
