I know, I know, this makes two pumpkin recipes in less than 3 days. If I keep it up, I’ll be turning bright orange and secreting pumpkin spice from my skin (I actually think the second symptom sounds a-okay).
But, YOU GUYS, there are some recipes you just can’t not share, like these Skinny Pumpkin Spice Muffins with Walnut Streusel. I mean, I just want to eat the name of the recipe itself.
These are everything you’d want a muffin to be: moist, dense, bursting with flavor, and topped with a tasty streusel and drizzle of sweetness. And guess what? All for under 150 calories a pop!
This may be a bold statement, but I think that these muffins, along with my Pumpkin Spice Apple Butter recipe, are two of my favorite pumpkin recipes of all time. For me, they both embody the comforts of Fall and I know that they will be making another appearance soon!
If my testimony isn’t enough, my friends are always glad to help. I’m lucky that I have plenty of willing taste testers around me, and none of them guessed that these little jewels were made with almost all whole wheat flour and only two tbsps of butter! The only comments I got on them involved “OMG these are so good” and even my non-pumpkin loving friend said that they were delicious!
As a matter of fact, the entire batch was eaten in one day.
Trust me, these look as good as they do in the pictures. Beauties!
Please pin this image if you’re pinning to Pinterst :)!
I’m also linking up to WIAW to share! Take a look at some other great eats:
If you secrete pumpkin spice from your skin…can I bottle it and sell it and make a small fortune please and thank you? 😉 (Although that’d kind of be like me selling your sweat for other people to drink, which is a little gross…ANYWAY.) These look so. Good. And even better that they’re on the lighter side, too! I’m still sad that we don’t have a kitchen (our dorm one is currently under renovation) or else I’d be making these right this second.
I think that is a fabulous idea! It will encourage me to workout more so that we can make bank ;). ANYWAYS… Hahah you always crack me up. Oh oh oh, I forgot to mention, Kyle was talking about the commentors on my blog and mentioned this girl from Mangoes and Miles, and I was like THAT’S BETH. So you’re basically famous. WOOT
I’d do anything to have you as my own personal baker! There has to be some sort of deal we can make? I pay for your ticket to Kuwait – take you shopping – anything you want.. you ask!
lol
I’d love to do that ;). Sounds like a fabulous deal for me haha!
Oh girl, theses pictures are so beautiful! The drizzle of powdered sugar makes them look spectacular! And I am sure that they taste just as amazing – gone in only one day? That’s what I all a proof!
Thanks girlie! I agree- it gives so much to the picture! Trust me, they were fab 😀
These look seriously good!
And now I really want one for breakfast … thanks a bunch 😉
I’d be your friend if it meant being able to taste test lots of goodies! Err… not that I wouldn’t be your friend without ’em, but the added perk is always nice 😉 These look great, girlie… I’m definitely in eat ALL the pumpkin mode, so finding new ways to get it in is always a bonus.
Hahah I base my friends on how well they feed me as well 😉 (jk, but it’s a good strategy LOL!). I agree- all the pumpkin!
Great pictures! Amazing recipe
Streusel and pumpkin just go so well together.
I have a pumpkin muffin streusel recipe at home that is beyond delicious and I bet these are too.
Thanks love! I agree- streusel on anything tastes fantastic (it’s always my favorite part of muffins ;)). Let me know if you ever share your recipe! I’m sure it’s fantastic!
could these be more perfect??? Well minus the whole gluten thing…but I can just sub in GF all purpose flour I think. Yup, these are happening!
Aww thanks Davida :D. Bummer about the gluten problem! I’ve never baked using gluten-free ingredients as substitutes. I’d love it if you wrote a post about it
Girl, you have done it again! Making me drool over your tasty recipes and beautifully photographed food! 😛
Thanks love! I’m happy with how they turned out 😀
Holy yum! These babies look amazing and seriously, your food photography alone has me drooling
Holy cow, these look awesome! I have a can of pumpkin that may need to be used for this recipe. Thanks for sharing!
These sound so good. I love all things pumpkin, and its always fun to find new ways to use it. Thanks for sharing!
Anything with a streusel makes my mouth water. I love crumb cakes and little bits of streusel on the top! Little bits of sugary goodness 😀
Pinned! Loving the looks of these!!
You are killing me!!! These look amazing, but sadly no apple products allowed for me
I can’t believe how healthy these muffins are. They look like they came straight from a bakery!
Thanks Laura! I’m SO happy with how they turned out 😀
These look downright amazing!
Girl keep it coming!!!! these look mouth watering AMAZING good!!!!
They’re mouthwatering, Christine. I can’t believe they’re only 150 calories.
Looking good Christine- your photography is amazing- and adding the word streusel to anything makes it sound 10000 times better.
cardboard streusel- already better.
chemistry streusel- already better.
arman streusel- no words.
Oh. my. gosh. I don’t know how you do it. Seriously… every single one of your recipes looks absolutely DELISH!!! We’re FINALLY starting to see some cooler weather here in Fla. and these would be so perfect to make. Def. pinning (and making) it <3
What an amazing treat to bring to my next brunch! I think everyone would love me (and you!).
Hi Christine! You mentioned simple and quick when you visited my site, so I had to come check out your recipes! My son has started baseball this year, so I am in need of some quick and healthy meals! Then of course I gravitate to the pumpkin recipes… These look great!
they look yummy!
I think I just died and went to heaven. I am sooooo going to make these immediately. Thank god I stocked up on like 5 cans of pumpkin. Oh man how I love pumpkin.
These look so great. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for stopping by love!
