Pumpkin spice season has officially entered the chat.
These homemade pumpkin spice muffins are soft, moist, perfectly spiced, and packed with pumpkin flavor — basically everything I want in a cozy fall baked item.
They’re super easy to throw together and make the perfect dessert, afternoon snack, or little something sweet with your coffee.
If you have a can of pumpkin sitting in your pantry, this is your sign to put it to good use!
These are delicious on their own as a muffin, or you can transform these into cupcakes with my homemade maple butter or a cream cheese frosting.
