Ingredients
  

1 cup canned pumpkin puree

1/2 cup rolled oats

1/4 cup almond milk (or milk of choice)

2 large eggs

1/4 cup maple syrup (or honey)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)

Whipped cream (for serving)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a muffin tin or line it with paper liners.

    Prepare the Oat Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond milk, eggs, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir well until all ingredients are combined.

      Add Dry Ingredients: Sprinkle the cinnamon, nutmeg, baking powder, and salt into the mixture. Mix until the dry ingredients are well incorporated.

        Incorporate Pumpkin: Gently fold in the pumpkin puree until everything is blended together smoothly. If you're using nuts, add them in at this point.

          Pour Mixture into Muffin Tin: Spoon the mixture evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.

            Bake: Place the muffin tin in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the edges are lightly golden.

              Cool and Serve: Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the cups cool for about 10 minutes. Gently run a knife around the edges to help remove the cups. Serve warm, topped with a dollop of whipped cream if desired.
