Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground ginger
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • teaspoon ground cloves
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup brown sugar packed
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ cup vegetable/canola oil or apple sauce
  • 15 oz can pumpkin puree
  • ¾ cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips plus more for on top of muffins

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a muffin tin with paper liners. Set aside.
  • In a medium-sized bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves together. Set aside.
  • In another medium-sized bowl, combine the sugars, eggs, oil, and pumpkin puree until smooth.
  • Add the wet ingredients to the dry and mix until just combined. Fold in the mini chocolate chips.
  • Divide the batter between the muffin cups (they will be pretty full). Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted into the center.
  • Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before removing them to a wire rack to finish cooling completely.
