Holy October it's here: Pumpkin season. They are everywhere and in everything. But how can you enjoy this sweet fall favorite with out feeling like you gained a pumpkin? Try this lovely chocolate pumpkin muffin recipe.

When they came out of the oven, I swear to god they smelled like chocolate cake donuts. I can't wait to dunk these suckers in my morning coffee.

Homemade Pumpkin Puree |
I made these into muffins and mini breakfast breads. It is a versatile, moist batter that can be whatever you want it to be: muffins, bread, pancakes, cake. You call it.
Either way, its delicious. I added 5 chocolate chips to each muffin and some pecans to the bread. This is totally optional. I also made my own pumpkin puree. Also optional. Use canned if you want! You will see butter in this recipe. You can always substitute coconut oil for butter in my recipes. It works just fine.
