Ingredients
Scale
1 cup pumpkin puree
1/2 cup honey or maple syrup
1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon baking soda

Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.
In a large bowl, mix together the pumpkin puree, honey (or maple syrup), melted coconut oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
In another bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. If desired, fold in walnuts or chocolate chips.
Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
