Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup or honey
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup almond butter or other nut butter
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/4 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1 tbsp powdered sugar (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease with oil.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine pumpkin puree, eggs, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth.
  3. Fold in almond butter, baking powder, cinnamon, and nutmeg until fully combined. The batter will be thick.
  4. In a separate bowl, blend the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar (if using) until creamy and smooth.
  5. Scoop about 2 tablespoons of pumpkin batter into each muffin cup, then add a dollop of the cream cheese mixture on top. Finish with another tablespoon of pumpkin batter over the cream cheese.
  6. Use a toothpick or knife to gently swirl the batter and cream cheese together, creating a marbled effect.
  7. Place in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the muffin comes out clean.
