Ingredients

For the pumpkin chocolate chip muffins

1 cup all-purpose flour
½ cup whole wheat flour
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1½ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
1 can Pumpkin 15 oz can pure pumpkin
¼ cup vegetable oil
1 cups sugar
2 large eggs
1½ cups apple chopped into chunks

For Crumble (optional)

1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
5 tablespoon sugar
1 ½ teaspoon cinnamon
1 tablespoon softened butter

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 Fahrenheit

For the Muffins

Stir together flours, salt, baking soda, and pumpkin spice mix.
In a separate bowl, mix together pumpkin, oil, sugar, and eggs.
Mix wet ingredients into dry until well mixed
Add a chopped apple and gently stir in.

For Crumble (optional)

Mix all crumble ingredients together and rub together with fingers until mixture resembles course bread crumbs.
Sprinkle Crumble on top. There is enough to be generous!
I add a couple of chocolate chips right on top of the crumble so the chocolate chips are visible.
Bake approximately 18-20 minutes. Test with toothpick to see if they are done.

Notes

Pumpkin pie spice recipe is also on this site.
Other alternatives are 1 teaspoon cinnamon plus ½ teaspoon nutmeg.
Using 1 ½ teaspoons of cinnamon is also a delicious option (but the muffins will taste more like cinnamon and less like pumpkin spice).
