If you love chocolate and pumpkin, these healthy pumpkin chocolate brownie muffins are a delicious way to satisfy a sweet tooth. They are rich, chocolatey and gooey like a brownie, but baked in convenient muffin cups so they are easy to grab for breakfast, a snack or a little afternoon treat.

I created this recipe when I first started on my anti-inflammatory journey and was looking for ways to satisfy my sweet tooth without completely going off track. I’m still doing my best to stick with it, and these Pumpkin Chocolate Brownie Muffins definitely make it a little easier.

The recipe uses just 3 tablespoons of coconut flour, along with pumpkin puree and avocado. The small amount of flour helps give the muffins their soft, fudgy texture. They are also naturally gluten-free and have plenty of chocolate flavor thanks to cocoa powder and dark chocolate chips.

Who ever thought brownies could be this easy to turn into muffins?
