Alright so I whipped up this recipe to have some muffins to give to my neighbors for Thanksgiving but they were SO good, that they were devoured in my house within 24 hours! 

So needless to say a second batch was need! They are sweet, moist, pack all the fall flavors you love & made with clean ingredients! The perfect go-to muffin for the holiday season!
