Pumpkin Almond Flour Muffins

Growing up, Passover breakfasts fell into two categories: muffins and pancakes. There is no thing wrong with those, in fact we have an amazing recipe for Passover Pancakes without Matzo Meal and several muffin recipes like our Chocolate Chip Banana Muffins. It's just that muffins and pancakes can get boring if you don't try different kinds. This recipe is similar to our Spiced Pumpkin Muffins but unlike that one, this one is gluten free so it doesn't contain matzo meal.

Ingredients used to make Gluten Free Pumpkin Muffins with Almond Flour

This healthy Pumpkin Muffin recipe uses ingredients that shouldn't require a special trip back to the grocery store. These Almond Flour Pumpkin Muffins are made from:

  • Almond flour - this is used as a base for the muffins. Regular wheat flour is considered chometz so we can't use it to bake on Passover. Almond flour recipes are a great substitute for chometz and are also gluten free. You should also try our Almond Flour Banana Muffins!
  • Canned pumpkin puree - provides the color, moisture, and is super nutritious. Just check out the health benefits of pumpkin.
  • Sugar - we used granulated white sugar.
  • Salt - helps the baking process.
  • Baking soda - helps the baking process.
  • Lemon juice - adds just a hint of tartness needed to balance out the other flavors in the Passover Muffin.
  • Cinnamon - for flavor.
  • Eggs - as binder.
  • Vanilla extract - for flavor.
  • Chocolate chips - delicious semisweet chocolate chips.

Equipment used to make Passover Muffins with Almond Flour

  • You will need a muffin baking tin to make muffins. There is really no good substitute for this if you are making muffins.
  • Muffin liners help to make sure that the muffins don't stick to the sides of the muffin tin. These are small custom fit pieces of parchment like paper designed for muffins.

How to store Pumpkin Muffins with Almond Flour

Make a lot of these muffins and save some for later. Store in an airtight plastic bag and keep them for:

  • 3-4 days on the counter.
  • 7-10 days in the refrigerator.
  • Up to 6 months in the freezer.

Top Gluten Free Passover Pumpkin Muffin recipe tips

  • Whenever there are beaten eggs involved in a recipe, I like to start by beating them by themselves. This insures that they are completely beaten and that there are no unmixed parts which can cause uneven baking.
  • Use the toothpick test to check if the muffins are done. That is where you insert a toothpick into the center of a muffin; pull it out and if there is goopy muffin batter on it, bake for another 2 minutes and try again.
  • If you don't have any muffin liners on hand, you can always grease each muffin cup with some oil or margarine to keep the Passover Pumpkin Muffins from sticking to the sides.
