Mini Pumpkin Spice Muffins

It’s been quite a week trying to get started with online school.⁣

Our school district had a huge spike in students switching from in-person to online classes, and not enough teachers to cover them, so we’ve been in a holding pattern with one child and a delayed start with the other one.⁣

So we took this opportunity to get in the kitchen and do some #kitchenschool with mom to prep some easy on-the-go snacks the girls can help themselves to throughout the day – like these mini pumpkin spice muffins.⁣

Slightly sweet and full of fall flavors like cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and clove, these are a perfect little two-bite treat alongside some fruit that my girls can easily grab when they need a break – which means one less thing for mom to have to do!
