Vegan Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins
These vegan pumpkin muffins with chocolate chips are decadent enough for a Halloween treat and healthy enough for breakfast. And they just happen to be gluten-free as well.
Servings: 10 muffins
1 cup pitted dates soaked in 1/2 cup water for at least 4 hours
1 1/2 cups canned pumpkin
1/2 cup raw pecans
1 cup oats
1/2 cup millet flour (1/3 cup whole millet ground)
2 tablespoons dark brown sugar (optional for extra sweet)
2 teaspoons cinnamon
2 teaspoons ginger
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoons baking soda
1 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/3 cup mini chocolate chips
Grind dates, water from soaking, pumpkin, and pecans in a food processor. Add oats, millet flour, sugar, spices, baking powder, baking soda, vinegar, and vanilla. Process to a dough-like consistency. Mix in chocolate chips. Fill muffin tins and bake for 15 to 17 minutes.
