Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins are the perfect fall muffin!
We really like pumpkin desserts in our house. One of the things that we love about fall foods are all pumpkin recipes and these muffins are one of our favorites.
I have been making this recipe for years. I don’t even remember where the recipe came from.
My kids love them, so it is one of my go to fall muffin recipes. My daughter likes them so much she wanted them instead of a birthday cake one year when she was younger.
I decided to make them into a cake. I doubled the recipe and made it in a 9×13 pan and used cool whip as the frosting. She thought it was great. It was good, but our favorite way to eat them is still as muffins.
I used to make these a little healthier, using whole wheat pastry flour in them. It worked really well and no one complained about the whole wheat in them. Now I make them gluten free using Bob’s Red Mill 1 to 1 Gluten Free Flour blend.
Yes, I used to use whole wheat flour all the time and now I use gluten free. The last ten years has brought a lot of changes in our cooking, but no matter how you make these, they are delicious!
We love these pumpkin chocolate chip muffins for breakfast or for snacks. I have sent them to work many times with my husband and his staff at work loves them.
If you are looking for a delicious pumpkin muffin recipe give this one a try!

Hello. I am new to TMTT and wanted to say hello. These look delish. It’s so nice to see all the pumpkin recipes everywhere. Love your header!!!!!
I bet these taste great and smell good too!
Well, I just made these muffins. They are so yummy. I like that they aren’t super sweet. This was just what I needed to end my night! Nice warm muffin while I am watching the debate.
Thanks Lisa for letting me know. I love hearing that people like my recipes. Thanks so much!
These look totally delish…I love pumpkin flavor. Can’t wait till we have kids that are old enough to help us eat stuff so I don’t eat the whole batch myself!
Hmmm, maybe I can bring ’em to church.
Thanks for this recipe! I’m a sucker for all things pumpkin, and all things chocolate! 🙂
I think I’ll make these for my birthday Thursday!
