In the winter, when the weather is cold and dark, I love to get in the kitchen and make something that fills the house with warm smells that bring everyone into the kitchen to see what is making their mouths water.
These muffins are amazing and I start making them right when the weather starts to cool off all through winter. I like to change up the ingredients. You can swap out the cranberries for chocolate chips, nuts, even raisins.

These look amazing! I still have a lone can on pumpkin in my pantry. I have been saving it for my post-pumpkin-holiday-season withdrawals. I am so making these this weekend.

I save them too. People tend to think that once Thanksgiving is over, you have to stop enjoying the pumpkin. They are so wrong!
Woho I’m gonna make these!
They look delicious!
These sound amazing
