Have you tried these pumpkin spice muffins yet?

Okay, first I need to admit something. I’m not actually a huge fan of pumpkin. Every year I try to make a few pumpkin-themed recipes solely because most everyone else loves the flavor! I’m not sure why, but I’d choose something apple-themed any day over pumpkin in the fall.

Just my opinion, but if you do happen to love pumpkin, then this recipe is a great one for you to try out. It includes minimal ingredients, is easy to make, and is a real crowd pleaser. As always, please reach out if you have any questions or comments about the recipe!

eat them as is, or top them with powdered sugar or the frosting listed below 🙂
