Savory Double Pumpkin Muffins

These Savory Double Pumpkin Muffins deliver a potent dose of pumpkin by utilizing both pumpkin puree and pumpkin seeds. They’re delicious as an accompaniment to a warming bowl of your favorite cold weather soup or stew (or, ahem, “stewp”).

Tip: Eat, puree, love

Making your own pumpkin puree is easy. Simply toss wedges of pumpkin with a little grapeseed oil or avocado oil before placing on baking tray and roasting in 400 F oven until fork tender, about 35 to 45 minutes. Let cool slightly, scrape pumpkin flesh from skin, and puree in food processor until smooth.
