The leaves. The crisp breeze. Sweaters. Hot cider. Pumpkin-flavored EVERYTHING.
*swoon*
Speaking of pumpkin-flavored everything, to help you guys celebrate the most awesome of all the seasons (true story), I'm sharing one of my favorite recipes: Pumpkin Cinnamon Chip Muffins. They're delicious, they're super-duper easy...what's not to like?!
Pumpkin Cinnamon Chip Muffins
Makes 12 normal-sized muffins
Ingredients
1 can of pumpkin (not the pie mix, just pure pumpkin)*
1 box of white cake mix
1/2 bag of cinnamon chips
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Scoop the pumpkin out of the can into a medium-large bowl. Pour the cake mix into the pumpkin and stir until wet and somewhat smooth. Fold in the cinnamon chips. Fill the muffin cups about 3/4 full. Bake in the oven for 15-19 minutes.
*You can also use a small pie pumpkin that has been steamed and mashed (13.5 oz). That's actually what I did this time around, and they turned out great, albeit a bit more moist than normal. Just make sure the mashed pumpkin is cooled off completely before adding the cinnamon chips, otherwise they will melt too early.
Anyone else have a favorite fall recipe to share? Any great fall decorating ideas?
