Ingredients

  • 2 cups Open Nature blanched Almond Flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons pumpkin pie spice
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup pure pumpkin puree
  • 1/3 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Maple Cream Cheese Frosting

  • 4 tablespoons butter softened
  • 4 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 cups powdered sugar

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350° F.  Place muffin pan liners in a cupcake pan.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, salt, and pumpkin pie spice mix.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, pure pumpkin puree, maple syrup and vanilla extract.
  • Combine the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients, gently stirring until incorporated.
  • Divide the batter evenly between the prepared muffin cups using an ice cream scoop, filling almost to the top of each liner.
  • Bake for 25 minutes, until a toothpick or knife comes out clean when inserted into the center.
  • Place on a wire rack to cool before frosting.

Prepare the Frosting

  • In a large bowl, cream the softened butter and cream cheese together.  Add vanilla extract, maple syrup and powdered sugar and beat until creamy and fluffy.
  • Transfer the frosting into a bag with a piping tip and pipe the frosting onto the muffins as desired.
  • This frosting will be enough for 12 cupcakes/muffins with a double layer.
