vegetable oil
and vanilla extract

Soon amazing , turned out so tasty and still moist after a few days ! Cannot believe how yummy and satisfying these are ! Any idea the calorie count / nutritious facts per serving ?
Could I add raisins to these?
Yes, should work just fine!
I know this is hard to believe but I am not a fan of pumpkin. Could I replace the pumpkin with sweet potato instead?
These look great. Why is the vinegar needed and what could possibly be used as a replacement? (My sensitive tummy doesn’t like vinegar.) Thank you for your delicious website!
I’m not the author, but I believe the vinegar combines with the baking soda to create the fluffy part of these muffins. If it’s the acid from vinegar that bothers you, I’m pretty sure it would be mostly neutralized.
This is easily the BEST vegan pumpkin muffin recipe I’ve every made. So fluffy! I add chocolate chips or chunks. We all love them!
