Guess what season it is (aside from Halloween, I mean!)? Pumpkin spice season!! To kick it off, we have a recipe for super yummy pumpkin Halloween muffins with crushed Oreo cooking topping! I don’t know about you, but pumpkin season is one of my favorites (along with “chocolate mint everything” season). Funny story, though, I didn’t actually like pumpkin until a few years ago. Now, I could eat all day. In my coffee, tea, bread, pies and, obviously, muffins.

The vanilla glaze and crushed Oreo cookies make these muffins more dessert-worthy. If you’re feeling health-conscious or want to eat them for breakfast without your parents giving you the “sugar for breakfast?” look, just leave a few naked muffins.
