Thanks to gnat from Mothering With Grace, who gave us this recipe.
The first time I made these, last fall, I turned my back for a moment (the fatal last words) and turned back around to find Hambet standing on the table with a muffin in each hand and a third stuffed in his mouth. He looked up at me and explained, “yummy!” Later, I sent the recipe to my mom, who made some for my grandma, who also pronounced them “yummy.” So there you go, endorsements from age 2 to 92.
1 1/2 cups flour
1 cup sugar
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp cloves
1/4 tsp allspice
1/4 tsp salt
2 eggs
1 cup pumpkin
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 cup chocolate chips
Mix dry ingredients and set aside.
In large bowl, beat eggs. Stir in pumpkin, melted butter and chips. Slowly add dry ingredients, mix well. Spoon into muffin pan. Bake 2-25 minutes at 350.
For mini-muffins, use mini chips and decrease baking time to 15-18 minutes.
(gnat says milk chocolate chips are especially good in this recipe)
