Ingredients

400 g pumpkin puree from a can or homemade
55 g cup cocoa powder
190 g cup smooth runny peanut butter
¼ cup honey or agave
1 teaspoon vanilla essence
100 g dark chocolate chips (use vegan if required)

Instructions

Stir together pumpkin puree, cocoa powder, honey, vanilla essence and peanut butter with a hand whisk until well combined. Then using a large spoon, stir through the chocolate chips.
Ideally use a silicone tray lightly sprayed with oil, mini muffin size if you have one, otherwise regular is fine. If using a metal muffin tray line with cake cases. If using a regular muffin tray, roughly half fill the holes. If using a mini muffin tray, fill each hole to the top if using a silicone tray no cases, and just below the top if using cases. You may find a couple holes are left empty and that’s fine.
Bake in a preheated oven at 160ºc/140ºc fan/300ºf/gas 2 for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and leave until cooled completely (especially if using a silicone tray popping them out will be a lot easier when cold). Carefully pop them into a food storage container or bag and transfer to set further and for at least an hour before eating. Continue to store in the fridge.

Baby & Toddler

Use agave and add some of the mixture to the muffin tin for them before you add in the chocolate chips.

STORAGE

Once cooled transfer to the fridge as storing them at room temp will cause them to be too soft and messy.
