The best recipe Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Muffins
I’m sorry for all the pumpkin recipes, but I just love it!

Pumpkin is rich in carotenes, which have been shown to protect against cancer and heart disease. Pumpkin consumption has also been linked to decreased risk of developing type 2 diabetes. It’s a great substitute for oil and butter in baked goods. Instead, add pumpkin puree to retain moisture without all the fat.
