Pumpkin Muffins

Another treat/snack I like to make are muffins. I hate calling them that since they are so far from any "muffin" you would buy. I am proud to say that these are my son's favorite food. He told me :) It may seem a little early for a fall treat, but we eat these year round!

Pumpkin Muffins

1 1 /2 cup whole wheat flour (freshly ground from Hard White Wheat)
1/2 cup sucanat, honey or organic sugar (brown sugar works too)
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. sea salt
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
1 egg
1 tsp. vanilla
1/4 cup melted coconut oil
3/4 cup unsweetened milk (dairy, almond, coconut)
3/4 cup canned pumpkin
2 Tbsp. ground flaxseed (opt.)

Mix dry ingredients. Add wet and mix well just until combined. Scoop into papered muffin pans. Bake at 400° for 18-20 minutes.
