Ingredients
  

1 cup canned pumpkin puree

2 large eggs

1/2 cup maple syrup

1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1/4 teaspoon ground ginger

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 cup rolled oats

1/2 cup pecans, chopped (optional)

1/2 cup raisins or chocolate chips (for added sweetness, optional)

Coconut oil or non-stick spray (for greasing)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

    Mix Pumpkin Base: In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, eggs, maple syrup, almond milk, and vanilla extract. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well-combined.

      Add Spices: Stir in the ground cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt into the pumpkin mixture until evenly distributed.

        Incorporate Oats: Gradually fold in the rolled oats, ensuring they are fully coated with the pumpkin mixture. If using, add the chopped pecans and raisins or chocolate chips at this stage.

          Prepare Muffin Tin: Lightly grease a muffin tin with coconut oil or non-stick spray.

            Fill Muffin Cups: Spoon the pumpkin mixture evenly into each muffin cup, filling them about 3/4 full to allow for rising.

              Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

                Cool and Serve: Allow the breakfast cups to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before gently removing them. Serve warm or at room temperature.

                  Enjoy: These Sweet Pumpkin Pie Breakfast Cups are perfect for meal prep or as a delicious start to your day! Feel free to enjoy them with a dollop of yogurt or a drizzle of additional maple syrup if desired.
