Oh hello there! Look who is back to sharing recipes! Fingers crossed I will be bringing you healthy recipes again on a regular basis. I took a bit of a hiatus of sharing new recipes, but some inspiration has struck again and I am ready to get back at it! I have been in fall mode for the last couple weeks already, so get ready for some yummy fall inspired dishes!
To kick things off, I am bringing you the recipe for these Pumpkin Zucchini Oat Muffins. Labor Day is over so I say it is officially pumpkin season! Zucchini is still in full bloom this season and such an easy way to sneak in some veggies in baked goods. To add a bit of sweet to this recipe I added enjoylife chocolate chips. Feel free to skip these or add in blueberries instead!
These muffins are perfect for a quick and light snack, add something sweet to your eggs at breakfast or a little sweet treat after dinner. If you are looking for some more fall inspired muffin recipes, check these out below!
