These mildly sweet Whole Wheat Pumpkin Muffins are perfect for a healthy, fall breakfast or snack!
Happy October!! It’s officially okay to start baking all the pumpkin things right? Yesterday we enjoyed watching a worldwide conference for our church, LDS General Conference. We get to watch it from the comfort of our own homes, in pjs, and enjoy good food while we do it! I made these Whole Wheat Pumpkin Muffins yesterday and even though it doesn’t quite feel like fall here San Diego, our home and bellies sure did!
These are actually an old recipe from the blog, one I made right after Graham was born-just over three years ago. I updated pictures and the recipe just a bit, with some tweaks I made.
These are made with whole wheat flour, coconut oil, and just mildly sweet–sweetened with a little brown sugar and honey. But if you add a sprinkle of chocolate chips just on top, they are perfection in my book. Fluffy, soft, warm and cozy good.
Have a great week friends! Ps…only two more weeks until we know the gender of these babes! It’s all I can think about these days!

After being in your home yesterday I’d say you are adjusting very well. Graham was so sweet and your older son was well behaved and polite. I am so excited about your blog. There are great recipes on here and I love the little stories about you and your family.
Thanks Karalyn!! Miles is not usually well behaved…he was just tired 🙂
These sound healthy and delicious–my favorite combo!

I love anything with pumpkin, and if it is healthy, so much the better! Saving some pumpkin in my fridge right now looking for the right recipe. I think this is it!
