Description

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins are soft, moist, and filled with gooey chocolate chips. This one-bowl fall recipe bakes into tall, bakery-style muffins perfect for breakfast or snacking.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (15oz) can pumpkin puree
  • 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup (105g) light brown sugar, packed
  • 1/2 cup (112g) vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup (63g) sour cream
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 1/4 tsp pumpkin pie spice (optional)
  • 1/4 tsp kosher salt
  • 2 cups (265g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/4 cups (225g) semisweet chocolate chips, plus extra for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-count muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together pumpkin, sugars, oil, eggs, vanilla, and sour cream until smooth.
  3. Whisk in baking powder, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice, and salt.
  4. Gently fold in flour until halfway combined.
  5. Add chocolate chips and fold until just combined. Batter will be thick.
  6. Scoop batter into muffin liners, filling each to the top. Sprinkle with extra chocolate chips.
  7. Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  8. Cool in pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Serve warm or store for later.

Notes

Store muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for 2 days, in the fridge for up to 1 week, or freeze up to 3 months. Reheat in the microwave for 20 seconds to enjoy warm.
