Pumpkin Cream Cheese Swirl Muffins

Pumpkin is coming! All things cinnamon, and pumpkin, along with hay rides, apple picking, and spooky ghost stories! The changing of seasons is always an exciting time. This one especially, because pumpkin is simply delicious. Pumpkin muffins are a breakfast staple during the fall but these Pumpkin Cream Cheese Swirl Muffins kick it up to a new level of awesomeness!

The pumpkin muffin recipe for these is moist and super easy to make. I love it because you can substitute a gluten-free flour mix and no-one would ever know the difference. The muffins are just as good either way.

The secret to these is in the cream cheese mix that you swirl into the top of the muffin. Think cheesecake but better.

I found this dairy-free cream cheese at Publix. IT IS THE BEST! It works perfectly as a replacement in these muffins if you want to make them dairy free!

Oh, and if you bake. These cupcake liners from Sweets & Treats Boutique are the best! They are greaseproof meaning when you bake in them the color and pattern don’t fade. The cupcake liners stay just as pretty as when you started. They have so many colors and patterns to choose from you can’t go wrong.
