Pecan Pumpkin Muffins
A great halloween bake. Gluten free, dairy free, vegan, sweetened only with maple syrup. The glaze makes a decadent addition, but they are delicious without if you are looking for a lower sugar bake. These muffins are best eaten on the day of baking. You can freeze them (without the glaze).
