Pumpkin Muffin Bites

I was looking for a fall muffin recipe

earlier this week on pinterest and I

guess I can't get pumpkin off my brain!

I chose this pin:

{mini pumpkin bites}

 

This is very similar to my Pumpkin Bar Recipe

with only a couple of changes. 

 

 

 

Little Sis is starting to be such a big helper in the kitchen! 

I love it :)

{combine sugar and oil, beat on medium speed}

{add eggs one at a time followed by the pumpkin puree. 

Mix together then add the dry ingredients}

 



{find really cute Fall or Halloween

liners and fill them up about 3/4 of the way}

{Bake at 350 for 10-12 minutes}

 

{Cool and frost with cream cheese frosting}

 

This recipe made a ton of mini muffins so I brought some to BSF, some to our neighbors and a full gallon size ziploc baggie into the freezer for another day.
