I was drooling the whole time I was making these quinoa pumpkin muffins and couldn't wait to eat them. I was NOT disappointed with the results and was so excited because they are full of good ingredients for me! This is a gluten-free pumpkin chocolate chip muffins recipe, but because of the filling, chocolate chips and topping you could eat them for breakfast, a snack or dessert.They don't take that long to pull together and the fun surprise of cream cheese in the middle is not only rich and decadent, but it's also similar to the frosting you put on carrot cake, which is my favorite all-time frosting. You have frosting inside the muffin and the streusel on top, so it's sort of like two toppings in one muffin. If you want to make them more appropriate for breakfast, you can always just leave out the filling and topping.My children loved these quinoa flour pumpkin muffins and were so excited to have them in their lunch box. I gave each of them one of these, some bacon and let them each pick their favorite fruit and vegetable. It's sweeter than I normally let them eat for lunch, but it's fun to have a little treat every once in a while in their lunch.This is a perfect fall or holiday recipe. I might just have to make these again here soon and have some hot chocolate while I read! Please let me know if you like these muffins and what you eat them with and what time of day you eat them.PrintRecipeclock clock iconcutlery cutlery iconflag flag iconfolder folder iconinstagram instagram iconpinterest pinterest iconfacebook facebook iconprint print iconsquares squares iconheart heart iconheart solid heart solid icon\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tGluten-Free Pumpkin Muffins Recipe with Cream Cheese & Chocolate Chips\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t5 Stars\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t4 Stars\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t3 Stars\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t2 Stars\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t1 Star\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t5 from 4 reviews\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAuthor: Rebecca Baron\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tPrep Time: 20 minutes\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tCook Time: 20 minutes\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tTotal Time: 40 minutes\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tYield: 14 1x\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tCategory: Breakfast\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tCuisine: Gluten-Free\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tPrint Recipe\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tSave Recipe\t\t\t\t\t\tRecipe Saved\t(function(){\tfunction ensureSlickstream() {\t\treturn new Promise((resolve, reject) => {\t\t\tif (window.slickstream) {\t\t\t\tresolve(window.slickstream.v1);\t\t\t} else {\t\t\t\tdocument.addEventListener('slickstream-ready', () => {\t\t\t\t\tresolve(window.slickstream.v1);\t\t\t\t});\t\t\t}\t\t});\t}\tfunction updateFavoriteButtonState() {\t\tensureSlickstream().then(function(slickstream) {\t\t\tvar isFavorite = slickstream.favorites.getState();\t\t\tdocument.querySelectorAll('.tasty-recipes-slickstream-button').forEach(function(el) {\t\t\t\tel.querySelector('.tasty-recipes-saved').style.display = isFavorite ? null : 'none';\t\t\t\tel.querySelector('.tasty-recipes-not-saved').style.display = isFavorite ?
