Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup brown sugar, packed

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

2 large eggs

1 cup canned pumpkin puree

1/2 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)

1/4 cup vegetable oil

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup chopped nuts (e.g., walnuts or pecans) or chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly.

    Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine rolled oats, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk until well combined.

      Prepare Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, pumpkin puree, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until smooth and well-blended.

        Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. If using, fold in the chopped nuts or chocolate chips for added texture and flavor.

          Fill Muffin Cups: Using a spoon or an ice cream scoop, fill each muffin cup about 2/3 full with the batter.

            Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

              Cool Down: Once baked, remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

                Serve and Enjoy: Serve these warm or at room temperature, perfect for breakfast or a cozy snack with your favorite beverage.
