I still have so many of my favourite pumpkin recipes to share! I find pumpkin incredibly versatile because it has such a light flavour it can replace many other ingredients like flour, applesauce and even butter! Muffins are aways a staple since they are so easy to pack for lunch or eat in the car. The added pecans give such a nice crunch it almost tastes like a little brownie!

I've never had such gooey muffins that stayed moist all week! They would also make great cupcakes too with a "creamcheeze" frosting. Enjoy, I know I did :)
