I just got my wisdom teeth out this past Friday, so I took all day Friday and Saturday to rest– something I NEVER do. As you can imagine, I was bored, so I decided to bake all the things! ‘Tis the season for pumpkin everything, so I whipped up some healthy pumpkin muffins and some not-so-healthy pie. It’s all about balance, right?
I made these pumpkin muffins a couple of weeks ago and they were a huge hit among my clients! I was only judged a little bit about why I was baking rather than resting… oops.
The muffins are super easy to make, loaded with healthy fats and protein, and with minimal carbs!
