I plan on making some chocolate pumpkin oat muffins soon. Kinda making it up as I go, but I'll basically be making a chocolate powder ingredient base (flour, cocoa, baking soda, and splenda), adding canned pumpkin instead of oil/egg/milk, and mixing in some oats. I'm hoping they come out okay.

GF Peanut Butter Banana Muffins

I omitted mixing the chocolate chips into the dough, and just sprinkled about 4 or 5 on top of each muffin. Also, I doubled the recipe since I knew I was not going to use the chocolate chips wouldn't get as much volume, and I ended up getting about 12 regular sized muffins out of the recipe.

They turned out great, can't even tell they are GF and for the most part sugar free (for the batter). However next time to get the volume (ie more muffins lol) and put some moisture back in the batter, I think I'm going to mix in blueberries where the recipe calls to mix in the chocolate chips. I'm thinking it will taste like a PB&J. I'm actually really excited to make them again with the blueberries.

These sound similar to one I make often - I freeze so I've got a quick brekky on the run or a filling snack. Will try this recipe.
