Pumpkin Walnut Muffins
Prep Time: 10 mins Baking Time: 16-17 mins
I love the tastes of fall. In my opinion, it's the most distinct season for flavor. The weather starts to cool down, there's a chill in the air & we start craving warmer, more comforting foods & spices.
There's nothing I love more than a warm, tasty muffin with my coffee on a chilly fall morning. This recipe will leave you satisfied with all the fall flavors but won't spike your blood sugar since its packed with protein, fiber, healthy fats & plenty of nutrients & flavor.
I hope you'll give them a try!
