Love pumpkin? Love Nutella? These recipe for easy pumpkin muffins will satisfy both of those cravings in one! A delicious pumpkin muffins with swirls of Nutella is a perfect breakfast or snack for any time of the year.

We’re in the midst of pumpkin season. I have to admit, I fall right for everything pumpkin. Put orange letters on a product with a bit of cinnamon and spice and I’ll buy it.

I think it’s the warm feelings have for the cool season as the leaves start falling. Fall carries a bit of a romantic feeling for me!

So these easy pumpkin muffins shouldn’t be a surprise at all. I’ve been making Pumpkin Spice French Toast in the mornings on the weekend and I’ve been looking for something a little more school morning friendly.

These muffins are perfect to make and serve for a few days after. They even freeze well too!

The ingredients are pretty simple and straightforward for an easy muffin recipe. You’ll want to blend all of your dry ingredients in one bowl, with wet ingredients in another before mixing together.

I use milk in this recipe, but I often replace milk in baking recipes with almond milk with little difference. Sometimes muffins are a bit more messy and don’t stick together as well with almond milk, but it’s a small price to pay to make them dairy-free if your diet requires that.

You’ll also want to find a dairy-free Nutella alternative. This one is our favorite.

Pumpkin is one of my favorite Fall flavors, but I would be lying if I didn’t admit that the lovely Nutella swirls weren’t what makes this easy pumpkin muffins recipe even more special. After a quick round in the microwave, your Nutella will sit right on top of the muffin batter.

Swirling muffins and cakes is one of Moreaya’s favorite parts of baking so get the kiddos involved when it comes to swirling!

In just 20 minutes, you’ll have warm, delicious easy pumpkin muffins with delicious Nutella swirls ready for breakfast or a sweet snack!
