If you can’t have wheat in your diet, you will love the Flourless Pumpkin Muffins recipe I am about to share. But even if you CAN have wheat in your diet, I always recommend that we should cut back on eating so much wheat and grain to give our digestion a little break. So these muffins are for you too. :)
What’s great about these muffins, besides the fact that they are flourless and deliciously pumpkin-y is that they are also filling and super nourishing. These include creamy almond butter, which makes these Flourless Pumpkin Muffins such a great start to the day!
Truly, can you believe these don’t have flour in them? They look so normal! (Hmmm, that’s what people have said about my children. “Really? Your kids are homeschooled? But they act so normal!” Ahahaha! Can you even believe it’s possible?! But I digress…)
I mix these muffins in my Blendtec, simply because it means I can throw them together so quickly. I blend the batter, then pour it into prepared muffin tins. Easy and awesome!

Do you think this might work with peanut butter too?
Definitely!
I was curious if you think Sunbutter would work with this. I wonder if it would change the taste too much.
I don’t think it would change the taste much. The pumpkin spice really overpowers everything else, so you should be good to go!
This looks great! I am thinking about cutting down on grains as well, so would love to try this. I just wondered, do you have a good source for more affordable almond butter (or do you make your own?), as even at my best prices, the almond butter for this recipe will be a chunk of change.
Thanks, Laura!
I have found Aldi to be the least expensive, but you’re right, it’s not cheap no matter what!
Ok, I’m wondering if I could sub the almond butter for cream cheese because I think that would be delicious!!
Hmm, that’s a really delicious sounding idea! I *think* it should work?? If you try, please let us know how it turns out!
The are delicious. I subbed peanut butter for the almond butter and added some dark chocolate chips, and they turned out great!
These are husband-approved! I made them with peanut butter and mini chocolate chips, and he gobbled them right up. I have to keep him in healthy snacks at work! (Oh and don’t worry, I taste-tested a couple first – and I like them even better the next day!)
I did find that 400 was a bit too hot in my oven, so I lowered it to 375. So readers, don’t be afraid to play around with oven temperature and times if necessary!
I thought they were terrible. Bland and dry. I even added more pumpkin pie spice. Made them for gluten free family. Hope they like them. What a waste of $10 for almond butter. I’ll stick to recipes with flour/grains in them. Sorry!
We need a nut and grain free option. Any ideas to sub the nut butter?
Does sunbutter work for you?
If anyone thinks this recipe is dry, I always add applesauce to all my muffins. I hope this helps someone.
