Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F. Prepare your mini muffin tin by lining it with paper liners or lightly greasing it.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, sugar, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
- In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, salt, and pumpkin pie spice. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
- Gently fold in the eggs, one at a time, until fully incorporated into the batter.
- Spoon the batter into each cup of the prepared mini muffin tin, filling about two-thirds full. Ensure an even distribution for consistent baking.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a brownie bite comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Allow the brownie bites to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serving
- Once cooled, serve the brownie bites as they are or decorate them with a dusting of powdered sugar or a drizzle of melted chocolate.
Storage
- Store any leftover brownie bites in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.
