Low Carb Pumpkin Muffins

September 29, 2014 By Sylvia Favela Leave a Comment

It’s fall and my favorite time of the season!  The weather changes to cooler temperatures and the leaves begin to change. Such a beautiful time of year.

But the best part are the pumpkin recipes.  Here is a Low Carb Pumpkin Muffin recipe you can make at home that isn’t sugary, starchy and devoid of nutrients – like the muffins at your favorite coffee shop.  Although those are pretty tasty, they are so bad for you.  These muffins are rich in beta-carotene and contain half and egg’s worth of high quality protein. The delicately sweet flavor will satisfy and have you come back for more.
