Two things I love easy recipes and baking… wait also chocolate — so I guess it is three things and this recipe has all three!

I learned about using pumpkin in baking years ago – it is a great way to cut the fat and calories out of baking without taking away from taste :)

I was able to whip up this muffins within minutes without much effort and Mr.Savvy loved them!

Baking Tip: You can freeze the batter in the cupcake holders so they are ready for bake in the morning or when company is over.

Just a question if you are to freeze the batter; do you thaw first before you bake? Does it take long to thaw? Might sound a little dumb, just have never put muffin batter in the freezer so not sure how to bake it the next morning. Thanks!

This looks yummy and easy! I have a bunch of pumpkin cans leftover from the holidays because I got too sick to bake pumpkin bread during myholiday vacation. Glad to have a new way to use it up! Thanks!

What size can of pumpkin do you use? I can’t tell from the picture but I think my can if larger than the one shown.
