How To Make Chocolate Caramel Pumpkin Stuffed Muffins

1. Blend The Muffin Batter

Preheat your oven to 350°F and prepare a 6-cup muffin pan. Silicone works best!

Add the oat flour, MoonBrew Sleep + Creatine Mix, cocoa powder, baking powder, applesauce, date syrup, and egg whites to a blender.

Blend until smooth and well combined. Do not add the pumpkin to the blender.

2. Fill The Muffin Cups

Divide half of the batter evenly between 6 muffin cups.

Add 1 teaspoon of pumpkin puree to the center of each muffin.

Top each muffin with the remaining batter, making sure the pumpkin is completely covered.

3. Bake

Bake at 350°F for 18 minutes, or until the muffins are set.

Allow them to cool slightly before serving.
