Pumpkin Oatmeal Muffins

Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

Pumpkin oatmeal muffins are 21 Day Fix approved and perfect for breakfast, an afternoon snack, or treat anytime. The muffins can be customized to please the tastes of your whole family.

Confession #59 – A muffin with my coffee is my version of morning perfection.

Something about this combo feels so simple, so peaceful, so relaxing.

It doesn’t matter that I’m not actually sitting to eat said muffin or leisurely sipping my coffee while reading my Kindle.  Oh no…I’m usually shoveling bites and gulping my coffee while doing a million other things.

But my mind is easily tricked by food, and these warm, comforting pumpkin oatmeal muffins have breakfast in bed written all over them.

      If it’s just a couple, I don’t worry about it. But they are a yellow if you use a full orange containers worth of chips per muffin. Hope this helps and so excited you found the blog, as well! Welcome!

    Hi, would this recipe count as 1/4 a purple container also? Thanks!

      I count pumpkin as a green because, in all due respect to Autumn, I don’t understand how she calls it a purple!

    These are soooo awesome! I love bananas in baked goods, so in my next double batch (I always double everything to meal prep!) I am going to try half pumpkin and half banana, for added sweetness 🙂

    I’liked your other 21 day fix muffin recipe so decided to try this one. I thought these were too bland. I worried that’d be the case when I was making them. I’m gong to try 1/2 pumpkin, 1/2 banana next time. I think more sweetness will do the trick.

    Hi! Love your recipes and have a question. This one calls for 1 cup of pumpkin puree, counted as a green. I was looking at your post on calculating container counts from recipe info and it said to divide the total container count of the recipe by number of servings. My thinking is this one would be 1÷12 since the puree is one cup and green containers are one cup. That comes out to .08, not .25 as the container count of 1/4 green indicates in the container summary. What am I missing? Also, do the almond milk, honey and eggs not have container counts because they would be negligible? Thanks for your help!

      I see what you are saying and you are correct – I rounded up to 1/4 because the pumpkin is a puree and therefore cooked down (like tomato sauce for example), so I took the liberty to increase it. I hope this makes sense?

    Can you explain how 1/4 green is areived at? And wouldn’t the almond milk count as a blue container? Also, wouldn’t the honey be at least 1 sweetner teaspoon? Thanks!

      Almond milk counts as a teaspoon – https://confessionsofafitfoodie.com/21-day-fix-updated-food-list/. So the entire recipe has 1 1/2 teaspoons that would need to be divided by 12 to count.
      Also, yes, the honey would be 1 sweetener teaspoon. This recipe is 4 years old, way before anyone talked about sweetener teaspoons (Autumn still doesn’t :).
