These were very good! I added a 1 TBSP of vanilla, 1/2 tsp of celtic sea salt, and used 1/2 tsp of pumpkin pie spice. I made these in mini muffin tins (filled to the brim), and on convection at 375*, they baked up beautifully in 15 minutes.
Thank you for the recipe – it was good to find something that uses an entire can of pumpkin in one batch!
Thanks for you comment and I also love to bake in mini-muffin tins. Cindy
Had to put mine back in for an additional 15 minutes, but it is a very rainy day here in middle TN….smells scrumptious…thanks….fairly new to paleo….
Great recipe- I love that I got to use the entire can of pumpkin. I also had to put them back in for an additional 15 minutes (28 min total).
AMAZING!!! I am so tired of recipes that call themselves ” pumpkin” muffins that only include 1/4- 1 cup of pumpkin… these were more like pumpkin custard muffins since they were so silky and moist. I may have cooked them a bit over the stated time but just know they will seem very soft…. TAKE THEM OUT when the toothpick is clean and enjoy! For someone who has been cooking for over 40 years… I am hooked on this recipe. Thanks so much : )
These are so tasty! However, I had to bake them for a little over 30 minutes and they still came out more like a bread pudding. I wonder about the amount of oil. The recipe says 1/2 cup coconut oil, melted. I melted the oil first, then measured 1/2 cup. Should I have measured 1/2 cup of the coconut oil before it was melted? Thanks for the recipe!
Just made these! I agree with the others about the time – I baked them for probably 30min. I also won’t use as much oil next time (they were sitting in puddles of oil after they were done). But other than that – delicious!
Hi Lenee, I am going to make them this weekend and see if I need to tweek the recipe. I will post my notes! Thanks, Cindy
