Chocolate Pumpkin Muffins Recipe
This recipe does call for a few more ingredients than I usually share, but most of these can probably already be found in your pantry or spice cabinet.
- 2 eggs
- 2/4 cup granulated sugar
- ¼ cup brown sugar, packed
- ¼ cup vegetable oil
- ¾ cup pumpkin puree
- ¼ cup water
- 1 ½ cups all purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- ¼ tsp ground nutmeg
- 1 cup chocolate chips, divided
- ¼ cup cocoa powder
Start by preheating your oven to 400 degrees F and line a muffin pan with paper muffin liners and set aside.
In a medium-sized bowl, cream together eggs and both sugars. Then add oil, pumpkin puree, and water. Mix them all until all of the ingredients are well incorporated with one another.
In a separate bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, and soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Slowly add all of the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and mix it thoroughly.
Next, pour half of the batter into a small bowl.
In a microwave safe bowl, melt ½ cup chocolate chips in 30-second intervals and pour it into one of the bowls of batter. Mixing it each time.
Add your cocoa powder to the pumpkin batter and chocolate mixture and mix it thoroughly.
Fold the chocolate and pumpkin batter back into the other pumpkin batter, taking care you don’t mix both but instead, create a “marble effect.”
Scoop batter into each section of the muffin pan – filling them about ¾ of the way.
Use the remaining ½ cup chocolate chips to top off each muffin.

Put them in the oven and bake them for 20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean once inserted in the center.
