INGREDIENTS:
4 Tbsp of ground flax seed
12 Tbsp of water (this and the ground flax seed will be your 4 vegan eggs)
1 tsp. Vanilla Extract
1/4 Cup Honey
1 Cup Pumpkin Puree
1/2 cup
Sunfood Coconut Oil, melted/cooled
1/2 Cup Coconut Flour
1 tsp. Baking Soda
1 tsp. (or more) of Cinnamon
Toppings:
Sunfood Heirloom Pumpkin Seeds
Sunfood Cacao Nibs
Optional for post baking toppings:
Nut Butter (wait to drizzle after it bakes)
DIRECTIONS:
Heat oven to 375F.
Whisk together the eggs. Add vanilla, honey, melted & cooled oil to the whisked eggs and mix together. Then add the pumpkin puree and mix thoroughly.
Add coconut flour, baking soda and cinnamon to the batter and mix well.
Grease a muffin pan (I used a large muffin pan that made 6 muffins). Take batter and pour into each individual muffin tin.
Add the pumpkin seeds and cacao nibs on top and place in the oven for 25 minutes.
Continue to check on it. I always place a toothpick into it and if there is still batter on the toothpick, I know it is not done baking.
Top with your favorite nut butter and enjoy!
