Looking for a Moist Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins Recipe

Best Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins

Calling all you pumpkin lovers: I have a delicious recipe for you today! It is moist pumpkin chocolate chip muffins – they truly are heavenly! I am all about nice and moist muffins and this recipe doesn’t disappoint. The key here is watching your baking time, if you over-bake them they will not be moist. If you follow the recipe and keep a close eye on the time, you should have perfectly moist pumpkin chocolate chip muffins in no time!

These Pumpkin Muffins Freeze Beautifully

I am a huge fan of pumpkin, and it turns out Clay is as well. He will eat a whole muffin by himself, he just loves them! These work great to freeze, and then take them out when you want one or two and just let thaw. You can toss them in the microwave as well for a few seconds to warm up, I prefer to let them thaw by themselves and eat when still a little cold!

I was also going to say if you haven’t tried using silicone muffin pans, they are really nice! These are BPA Free, dishwasher safe, and heat resistant up to 450 degrees! These make the cleanup so simple, no mess, or stuck on gunk, it just wipes right off!  As well as being great for baking cakes, these pans can also be used for your other culinary creations such as for cooking tartlets, mini cheescakes, small chicken pot pies, quiches and lasagnes and even as molds for making soap!  They are truly a great piece to have in your kitchen stock!

Moist Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins

So, lets get to the recipe, this is very easy to mix up, and I always use my KitchenAid mixer, it just makes the prep easier for me, but if you don’t have one, a spatula or hand mixer works just as good!

  2. Then you want to mix your eggs, pumpkin, oil, sugar and vanilla together.
  3. In a separate bowl sift your flour, and then add your baking soda, baking powder, salt and cinnamon in to the mixture.

  7. Bake for around 15-20 minutes. Depending on your oven will depend on cooking time. Stick a toothpick in them and if it comes out clean they are done.

Notes

These do freeze nicely, just place in a freezer pack and get as much air out of it as you can. Then just take them out as you want to eat them.

Oatmeal Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies – Are a Hit This Season

September 14, 2016 by Leave a Comment

Oh how I love anything pumpkin, it is one of my favorite things! I actually made these pumpkin cream cheese swirl muffins that are beyond heaven. Clay just gobbled them up so fast! I wanted to do more pumpkin so I made these oatmeal pumpkin chocolate chip cookies.

What I love about these cookies is the oatmeal paired with the pumpkin, it really is delicious! The oats really add a nice texture to the cookies. The chocolate chips are a good flavor addition, I debated putting them in and I am so glad that I did!

I used my cookie scoop so they are a little bit smaller in size, but you can always use a bigger scoop. They don’t really spread much on the pan, which is nice. They are a nice thicker cookie which is what I prefer. I cook them a little less on time so they stay soft, but if you prefer a more crunchy cookie you can always bake a bit longer.

I thought these were pretty quick to whip up and bake. I made around 3 dozen cookies, mine were smaller in size. Depending on how big you make them will depend on how many it makes!

Pumpkin-Oat Chocolate Chip Cookies

As you can see these beauties are nice and soft on the inside and so fluffy! I truly love them! My mother-in-law was over and she got to try them and really loved them too! Clay thought they were delicious so I say they are a true winner in our household! They are best straight out of the oven after they have cooled a few minutes! Cookies never last too long in our house!

Oatmeal Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe

Ingredients:

1 cup pumpkin puree

2 cups quick oats
1 1/2 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup butter (softened)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
I use a KitchenAid Mixer, but if you don’t have it you can use a bowl. You will want to cream your butter and brown sugar together. Then add in your pumpkin puree,vanilla, and eggs. Mix well.
In a separate bowl mix your flour, baking powder, pumpkin pie seasoning, and salt.
Slowly add in the dry ingredients to the wet.
Once well mixed scoop out onto a cookie sheet and bake 10-12 minutes. They will get a little golden on top. You can stick a toothpick through them if they come out clean done. Put on a baking rack to cool.
