1 teaspoon baking soda
1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup chocolate chips or chopped nuts (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it well.
- In a blender or food processor, combine all ingredients except for the chocolate chips or nuts. Blend until smooth.
- Fold in chocolate chips or nuts if using.
- Pour the batter into the muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Notes
You can substitute almond butter with peanut butter or sunflower seed butter for a nut-free version.
These muffins can be stored at room temperature for up to 3 days, refrigerated for up to a week, or frozen for up to 3 months.
For a vegan version, replace the eggs with flax eggs and use maple syrup instead of honey.
