Deliciously Spiced Pumpkin Muffins: Gluten-Free and Dairy-Free

Fall Vibes Pumpkin Muffins

These cozy, tasty pumpkin muffins are not just a delightful treat, they're also gluten-free and dairy-free, making them a perfect indulgence anytime of day. They’re more nutritious than they look as they’re made entirely gluten-free and sweetened with real maple syrup. We topped them with dark chocolate which is said to be one of the best sources of antioxidants and can improve blood flow. Plus, they’re made with pumpkin which is actually a superfood!.


Savor the fall flavors, the subtle sweetness of maple syrup, and the delightful combination of pumpkin and spices. No pumpkin muffin is complete without traditional warming spices which is why the Fall Vibes Superfood Blend is PERFECT for these treats that smell & taste just like fall. 


Share these with friends and family, or keep them all to yourself for a little taste of autumn whenever you desire. We won’t tell. ;)

Pumpkin Spiced Muffins

Gather This:

2 cups almond flour

¼ tsp salt

½ tsp baking soda

¼ cup oil of choice

¼ cup maple syrup

2 eggs

⅓ cup pumpkin puree

1 tsp vanilla extract

2 tbsp Philosophie Fall Vibes

½ cup of gluten-free dark chocolate chips or cacao nibs 

Pumpkin Gluten-Free & Dairy-Free Muffins

Do This:

Preheat oven to 350℉. 

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, salt, and baking soda. Add wet ingredients + mix until well combined.

For that unmistakable pumpkin spice taste, add 2 tablespoons of Philosophie Fall Vibes or your preferred pumpkin spice blend. This is where the magic happens! 

Stir in chocolate chips or cacao nibs and then spoon the batter into paper liners in a cupcake pan. 

Pop your muffin pan into the preheated oven and bake for 22-24 minutes. Keep a watchful eye on them – you'll know they're done when the center is set, and a toothpick or fork comes out clean when inserted into the muffin.

Once they're ready, remove your pumpkin spice muffins from the oven and let them sit for about 5 minutes. 

Devour!!
