Do you know what’s happening this week in my world? Packing and stressing and running around like a maniac. We’re going on vacation!
We leave Saturday for Kansas City for the night (I plan to eat my weight in barbecue) and then we fly down to Disney World!
I was never a Disney girl until I attended a food blogging conference there last year. I took the family with me, we had a great time, all of us became Disney park converts and we had our second trip booked almost immediately. I’m one of those annoying people who, when asked to describe our first Disney trip, exclaims “it was all so magical!”
It’s annoying and I’m sorry. I can’t help it. It really was magical!
That said, I’m still not okay with our travel agent beginning every email to me with “I hope you’re having a Disney day!” That makes me feel stabby. I’m a grown woman who has been busy scrubbing the toilets and folding umpteen loads of laundry and complaining about my husband tracking dirt all over my freshly swept floors all day long. There is nothing Disney about my day until I’m actually at Disney.
Anyway, because what I really should have been doing was packing, I made muffins instead. I’m a procrasti-baker.
Muffins don’t get made all that often in my house. After all, I am the (self-proclaimed) donut queen.
But, sometimes you just really, really need a muffin. Sometimes you really need to break out your BEST muffin recipe and do a little experimenting. Sometimes that experimenting includes Biscoff spread and Nutella.
You guys. I love my life. My tasty, delicious life full of things like pumpkin, Nutella, and Biscoff.
Would you just look at the melty Biscoff oozing out of the center of that muffin? It’s a dream come true.
My family was split right down the middle with these. Half of us preferred the Biscoff version and half of us preferred the Nutella version. I didn’t try mixing together both Nutella and Biscoff in one muffin, but I imagine that only great things would come from that. You should try it and report back.
This muffin recipe is easy to whip up and it makes a moist muffin full of pumpkin flavor. We really love these muffins and my kids have been asking for them daily. I haven’t heard one word about their sugary cereal or requests for donuts or whining that they need pancakes since I made these muffins.

What is biscoff? and where would you purchase it? I know Nutella and love it!
Thank you !
Karly says
@Janice,
It’s a spread made of Biscoff (speculoos) cookies. You can purchase it near the peanut butter at most grocery stores. It goes by the name Cookie Butter at Trader Joe’s.

Ummm comparing packing to being at Disney is just wrong. very wrong. They’re like…totally opposite things!
Pumpkin, nutella, and biscoff, though…they’re basically the way Disney feels IN A MUFFIN. So that’s alright with me.
Annie @ Annie's Noms says
Oh Lord, these look utterly dangerous for my waist! Biscoff and Nutella are so damn fine together, I bet they’re even more amazing with pumpkin!!
Ashton says
