Ingredients

  • 2 cups Almond Flour
  • 1 tsp Baking Soda
  • 2 tsp Baking Powder
  • 2 scoops Unflavored Protein Powder I use Genepro
  • 2 tsp Pumpkin Pie Spice
  • 1/2 tsp Ground Cinnamon
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1 cup Pumpkin Puree
  • 1/2 cup Sugar Free Granulated Sweetener I use Swerve
  • 1 Egg
  • 2 Tbls Coconut Oil melted
  • 1/2 cup Sugar Free Chocolate Chips I use Lilys

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line your muffin tin with muffin liners
  • In a large bowl add your almond flour, baking soda, baking powder, protein powder, pumpkin pie spice, and cinnamon. Use a whisk to combine the dry ingredients together
  • In a separate bowl add the pumpkin puree, vanilla extract, sweetener, egg, and melted coconut oil. Whisk together to fully combine
  • Add the dry ingredients into the pumpkin mixture and stir to combine. Stir in the chocolate chips
  • Fill the muffin liners with the mixture until mostly full. I like to use an ice cream scoop to make them rounded on the top, these muffins don't rise much on their own
  • Bake for 20 minutes, a knife should come out clean
    Let cool completely and enjoy!

Notes

Recipe Notes
You cannot replace the almond flour with another baking flour, they do not bake the same so I recommend sticking to the recipe
I used unflavored protein powder to add a boost of protein to these, but you can leave it out or replace with unflavored collagen powder
I mentioned this above but be sure to grab pumpkin puree and not pumpkin pie filling
