Oat Pumpkin Breakfast Muffin Tips:

purchase pumpkin puree

For this recipe, it is VITAL that you purchase pumpkin puree or canned pumpkin and not pumpkin pie filling. There is a big difference!

Pumpkin pie filling should never be used in lieu of pumpkin puree because the recipe will come out much sweeter. Pumpkin pie filling includes many other flavors because it is meant to be used exactly how it’s called: as a filling for pies.

You can add more to the topping

Looking for ways to make give this recipe a personal touch? Get creative with the topping! In our basic recipe, we’ve sprinkled crushed nuts and oats on top of each muffin. However, the sky’s the limit with what you can sprinkle on! You can use other toppings like pistachios, shredded coconut, pumpkin seeds, chia seeds, etc.

Coat the pan with cooking spray

To ensure that your muffins come out of the muffin tin, be sure to coat each section with cooking oil. The best way to do this is with cooking spray.

You can also use paper muffin liners, but we suggest also spraying each liner to ensure the muffins come out nicely.

By coating the pan sections or the muffin liners, you’re guaranteed a whole muffin and less of a mess!
