Gluten Free Pumpkin Muffins

I have been making muffins with a healthy twist for several years. Every once in awhile I get a good recipe out of my experiences and by good I mean- everyone even the kids will eat them. hahaha
This one packs protein, fiber, and a lot of nutrition which is great for helping with those snack attack moments or if you are a busy mom like me, most of the time these end up being my breakfast while driving.
So have some fun add a little of your favorites or take away some of mine and create something healthy that tastes yummy too.
Recipe

Mix wet ingredients first
- 1/2 cup coconut oil
-2 eggs
-1 teaspoon of vanilla
THEN add
-1 can of organic pumpkin
1/2 cup maple syrup (more if you like it sweet but don't go too crazy)
MIX

Add the dry and keep on mixing
2 cups oat flour ( you can grind up raw oats very fine and that is your flour)
2 scoops of a healthy vanilla protein powder (by healthy I mean not a GNC brand-get something gluten free and if its whey make sure its grass fed and read ingredients)
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon pumpkin spice powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon flax seed
1 tablespoon of chia seed
1/2 cup dark cocoa chocolate chips

as you mix add 1/2 cup of Milk of choice ( almond-cashew-or regular)

Mix well and scoop into muffin tins ( spray first or use muffin papers)

Top with pumpkin seeds-raw oats-and cinnamon
Bake 25-30 min at 350 degrees.
