I'm one that waits until October to start going full force pumpkin flavors.  It's hard to wait, but I feel apples and September need their glory moments too.  However, to be completely honest, I like to wait so I don't OD (overdose) on pumpkin before Thanksgiving.  Honestly, I'm not the only one who ODs on flavors or foods, right?   

Now that it's October I have already enjoyed the delicious Pumpkin Steamer at Starbucks (aka steamed milk with pumpkin), and made multiple batches of these Skinny Mini Pumpkin Blender Muffins. Mmmmm both are oh so delicious!  

These muffins are so yummy, gluten free, and has no processed sugars.  Add the fact that all you have to do is push a button on your blender to combine everything.  As my first grader and kindergartner would say, "Easy Peasy Lemon Squeezy."
