oatmeal pumpkin spice muffins (Vegan)
It was a rainy and miserable morning at the farm. Thank god for pumpkin season. Nothing cheers me up quite like pumpkin everything!
After a chilly morning spent in the mud and rain I was so happy to leave the farm early and come home to make a mid morning pick-me up. (Poor Taylor is taking one for the team and is finishing up the morning chores solo) However, I did promise him a hot breakfast so he was fine with it. Besides, I will be more productive at the farm later this afternoon once I have a belly full of delicious pumpkin spice muffins and a few hours to warm myself up!
After defrosting my freezing hands under hot water for about 10 minutes I got right to work in the kitchen. These muffins were a cinch to make. The best part is that they are naturally vegan and full of healthy super foods. Pumpkin, flaxseeds, sunflower butter, oats and lovely spices.
Pour a cup of hot tea and enjoy.
