Pumpkin coconut carob muffins

I made these a couple of days ago, and they were a huge hit. Even the girls LOVED them. They helped make them too - its a super easy recipe!



Servings: 12 muffins
Preparation time: 10 minutes

* 1/2 cup coconut flour
* 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
* 1 teaspoon cinnamon powder
* 1/4 teaspoon cloves
* 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
* 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
* 6 eggs
* 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
* 1/4 cup ghee, melted
* 1/8 cup vanilla agave
* pinch salt
* 1/2 cup carob chips
* 12 pecan halves


Preheat oven to 400F. Grease a muffin pan or line with paper liners.

Sift together coconut flour and spices together.

Whisk remaining ingredients together (except walnuts and carob) in a separate bowl until well mixed.

With a wooden spoon or whisk stir the flour mixture gradually into the pumpkin mixture so that no lumps remain. Add chips and mix together.

Divide batter between 12 muffin cups. Place one pecan half on the top of each muffin.

Bake for 12 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Do not over bake as the flour can burn easily
