I am a true lover of pumpkin, and now that September has arrived and I see again pumpkins in many shops, I have decided to give myself a treat. So I’ve prepared pumpkin muffins with spices, really tasty. They are very simple to prepare and do not require much time.
These muffins are perfect for breakfast as they are very complete. Its sweet and spicy taste will conquer all. As always, I hope your opinions 🙂
