Story
Kellie Harris, a good friend years ago, searched for a recipe for pumpkin muffins that were dairy-free. Finally, she found this recipe, and gave it to us. We’ve adjusted things, and mixed some stuff up, but thanks to her kindness this recipe has served us many years. So, we hope you enjoy our “Kellie Harris Pumpkin Muffins” after we’ve scribbled notes on the the yellowing recipe many times. Hopefully the magic of fall will be brought to your home, your friends’ homes, or even your office through these delicious muffins. Watch out for any invading children or neighbors hoping to get a taste of the fantastic pumpkin muffins. You may have to watch out! 😉
Note from the Kids:
I always look forward to fall simply for these muffins, although if I crave them too bad I wouldn’t feel bad making them some other time! 🙂 These muffins are simply TO DIE FOR! The chocolate chips complement the pumpkin, and the spices bring it all together. They taste like fall (But not store-bought cheap fall haha!) I think one time I forgot to eat dinner because I lacked the self-control to stop nibbling them and I ended up filling up on pumpkin muffins! If you don’t trust me, trust the friend of mine who said they are so good! Also, I took the pictures, and I sweated and labored over them (wink, wink) so, you’re welcome for the eye candy! But do try the mouth candy of these pumpkin muffins!
Add flour through salt (dry ingredients), and mix.
Mix in pumpkin and water.
Stir in chocolate chips.
Spray muffin tin or use cupcake liners, and put batter evenly into muffin tins.
You can also use small bread loaf pans. This recipe makes a lot, so be prepared with many trays or to do several batches. We like to do 2 4x3 muffin tins and some mini bread loaf pans (as pictured).
