10 Fall Muffins You’ll Want for Breakfast Every Morning
Wake up to a dozen of these warmly spiced treats.
Who doesn’t love a good ol’ muffin? Whether they’re packed with jammy blueberries, melted chocolate chips, or crunchy pecans, the best homemade muffins are moist, flavorful, and incredibly versatile. You can bake up a batch for a grab-and-go breakfast on busy mornings, prep a dozen as after-school snacks, or pop a tray in the oven whenever you’re craving something sweet and want your house to smell like a bakery.
While muffins are delicious year-round, they’re the perfect thing to enjoy on a brisk fall morning. Since they’re warm, tender, and oozing with comfort, these sweet, doughy bites capture the coziness of the season, especially when they’re loaded with seasonal flavors like pumpkin spice, cinnamon, or apple. That’s especially true when they’re paired with a buttery streusel topping or a drizzle of maple glaze.
No matter the flavor, though, the best part about these fall muffin recipes might just be their convenience: You can bake most of them a few days ahead, store them in an airtight container, and grab one whenever you’re feeling peckish. If you don’t have time to prepare elaborate fall breakfast ideas on busy mornings, these fall muffins are just the thing to tide you over until lunchtime. Give one of ‘em a try!
