Air Fryer Pumpkin Muffins

Welcome to pumpkin season, at least in the Philadelphia area. Today, I made my family a bunch of pumpkin muffins. They were so moist, I made them from scratch, and they made the perfect breakfast, paired with my coffee. Today, I am going to show you how to prepare Air Fryer Pumpkin Muffins.

If you are like me, once teh fall rolls around, it’s all about apples and pumpkins. My kids went apple picking a few weeks ago, and I made some great apple desserts. Today, I turned my attention to having a quick breakfast, including pumpkin.

My son Ethan finally released how greaqt pumpkin is, but he wanted me to frost them, with my homemdade cream cheese frosting, which is amazing. I sprinkled some pumpkin spice on top, for that extra pumpkin flavor. Truly amazing.
