As someone who only over the past few years started to like pumpkin in desserts, this year it really got me! After our trip to the States I found myself addicted to anything pumpkin-spiced ha ha. Seriously, I made so many pumpkin desserts recently that my family thinks I\u2019ve gone mad!<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">So, this is one of my favorites from the various recipes I made recently. These are pumpkin muffins with pecans that are so easy to make, soft and have the most amazing moist texture. They are fragrant and spread such a delicious aroma all over the kitchen while baking.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">They would make a great sweet breakfast or snack this Fall, and of course \u2013 are great for Thanksgiving and even for Christmas. I like to keep them in the freezer and thaw one or two muffins in the microwave whenever I want something sweet. One of these muffins is a great snack to have with your cup of coffee.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lilcookie.com\/category\/holidays-and-events-en\/thanksgiving\/\">Looking for more desserts for Thanksgiving?
