Why You’ll Love It

Ingredients

  • 1 cup pumpkin purée 🎃
  • ½ cup Greek yogurt
  • ½ cup peanut butter 🥜
  • 2 large eggs 🥚
  • ½ cup honey or maple syrup 🍯
  • 2 cups rolled oats (or oat flour)
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • ½ tsp nutmeg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Tools Needed

  • Mixing bowls
  • Blender or food processor (if using rolled oats)
  • Muffin pan

How to Make Greek Yogurt Peanut Butter Pumpkin Oat Muffins

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with liners.
  2. Blend the oats (if whole) into a fine flour using a food processor.
  3. Mix wet ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together pumpkin purée, Greek yogurt, peanut butter, eggs, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla.
  4. Combine dry ingredients: Add oat flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Stir until smooth and thick.
  5. Scoop into liners — about ¾ full each.
  6. Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  7. Cool completely before enjoying. The aroma? Pure autumn magic. 🍁

What to Serve with These Muffins

Tips for Making It Perfect

  • Don’t overmix the batter — it keeps the muffins tender.
  • Add chocolate chips or chopped nuts for texture.
  • Bake until just set; overbaking can dry them out.
  • Store extra muffins in the fridge and warm before serving for that fresh-baked taste.

Storage Instructions

  • Room temperature: Store in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
  • Refrigerator: Keeps for 5–6 days.
  • Freezer: Freeze individually for up to 3 months. Reheat in the microwave for 20–30 seconds.

General Information

Pumpkin is naturally rich in vitamin A and fiber, while Greek yogurt adds protein and creaminess. Together, they create a nutrient-packed snack that supports gut health and immunity — especially welcome in cooler months!
