It’s pumpkin everything season and we are ready for it! You are going to want to try the best pumpkin muffin recipe to get yourself into the season.

Every fall, I start to crave all things pumpkin. First, it’s time to head out to the pumpkin patch with the family for the annual harvest excursion. As the leaves start changing, the fall baking begins. There’s nothing better than a kitchen full of the smell of pumpkin spice.

We’re working with International Delight today to share the Best Pumpkin Muffin Recipe that celebrates fall and pairs perfectly with their Pumpkin Pie Spice coffee creamer and their new Pumpkin Pie Spice Iced Coffee.

This pumpkin muffin recipe is a family fave and our top better-for-you breakfast treat. With hints of sweet pumpkin, the molasses flavor of scant (pure dried sugar cane juice), classic pumpkin pie spices, and finished off with an oat and pumpkin seed crumb topping,  it really is the best pumpkin muffin!

And to make it even better, it goes so well with a cup of coffee with Pumpkin Pie Spice creamer. Now we’re talking fall.

Mornings in the fall are meant for homemade baked goods and big cups of coffee. But some fall mornings are not quite sweater weather days and that means iced coffee! The new International Delight Pumpkin Pie Spice Iced Coffee is perfect for those warmer fall days. I don’t know what it is about iced coffee, but it feels like and tastes like such a treat.
