These flourless pumpkin muffins are to die for! They are soft, moist, easy and quick to make! The canned pumpkin combined with the dairy free chocolate chips, bananas, and pumpkin pie spice makes these grain free muffins perfect for fall!
What makes these grain free pumpkin muffins so good?
- These paleo pumpkin muffins are so soft, moist and full of flavor! I love how they literally require minimal ingredients and are super simple to make.
Key flourless pumpkin muffins ingredients:
- Eggs-This helps bind everything together.
- Almond butter-This is what we are using as an alternative to flour. You can substitute peanut butter, but note that peanut butter has a different taste than almond butter. It is a lot stronger, but if you love peanut butter that is the way to go!
- Maple syrup-To add in some sweetener.
- Fresh ginger-I love fresh ginger. It is so yummy and can really take any dish or dessert to a whole new level! You can use powdered ginger, but just note that powdered is not the same as fresh so the flavor may be off a bit.
- Baking powder-To help the muffins rise.
- Banana-To help naturally sweeten these paleo pumpkin muffins.
- Avocado spray-To prevent the muffins from sticking to the pan.
- Cocoa powder-To add to the chocolatey taste.
How to make:
- First, preheat the oven to 350.
- Next, place all ingredients in a bowl EXCEPT the chocolate chips and fold together.
- Now, spray the muffin liners with the avocado oil.
- Evenly distribute the batter.
- Sprinkle the chocolate chips on top.
- Now, bake for 25 minutes.
What kind of pan should I use?
- I now only use silicone muffin pans! They make baking so much easier. You do not have to worry about the mixture sticking to the muffin pan. I love this one.
How should I store these grain free pumpkin muffins?
- I love using these glass containers! They are best stored cold in the fridge.
Chef’s tips:
- You can even add more chocolate chips on top once the muffins bake.
- To ensure the muffins are done, stick a fork in them. If they are done the fork will come out clean.

What could I substitute for almond butter? Would tigernut butter or coconut butter do? Lovely recipe🙂
HI! You could try peanut butter, I do not think tigernut butter or coconut butter would work well
Made these last night. Super easy to whip together as most of the ingredients I had. They are so good! My kids loved them too. A perfect fall recipe. I will be making again for sure.
I am so glad you liked them Caron!
