These Vegan Pumpkin Muffins are loaded with gingerbread flavor and lots of chocolate chips.
Sometimes food speaks louder than words.
Especially if you’re The Emotional Baker.
As I’ve told you before, I’m a pretty quiet chick.
I’ve always been shy, but I didn’t get really quiet until high school.
At my new school, we were divided into advising groups.
Every Thursday, we met our groups for breakfast. Each week a different student was responsible for bringing food. When it was my turn, I always brought Jumbo Muffins from a local bakery. Everyone went crazy raving how delicious they were – especially when I brought Pumpkin Muffins!
Since I didn’t always have much to say, I’m sure I was mainly known as the muffin girl.
& that’s fine by me 😉
These Vegan Pumpkin Gingerbread Muffins will surely do the trick if you’re ever at a loss for words.
They are full of cozy gingerbread spices and chocolate chips. It doesn’t hurt they’re slightly healthier than your average muffin, too.
Hope you have a great Halloween!
