Pumpkin spice muffins are a perfect fall treat you’ll come back to again and again all fall long! This recipe for healthy pumpkin spice muffins is super easy and made with nutritious ingredients and not a lot of sugar. They get a lot of their fluffy, moistness from the siggi’s pumpkin spice skyr added to the batter, which is one of my favorite pumpkin spice products of all time!
The pumpkin spice skyr, or icelandic yogurt, elevates the muffins and adds to their delicious texture. I love knowing that siggis yogurt is adding more protein per bite too! Baked goods in the fall are truly my weakness but I always strive to sneak in more nutrition by way of pumpkin and in this case, siggi’s yogurt!
The pumpkin puree plus the siggi’s pumpkin yogurt (since it contains real pumpkin!) give these healthy pumpkin spice muffins a nice dose of vitamin A, which is great for eye health and immune function.
If you follow me on Instagram then you know I live for the time of the year when all of the pumpkin products start hitting store shelves. Siggi’s pumpkin spice yogurt most of all! It’s spiced just right and makes a good protein-rich snack any time of day.
I love siggi’s because their yogurt is truly unlike all the rest. High in protein and low in sugar and made with simple ingredients, it’s a fridge staple of mine no matter the season. I totally get that the dairy aisle can be super confusing and overwhelming because there are so many options out there, which is why you want to be informed on making the best choice for your health. Read all about that in this post on what to look for on a yogurt label.
Besides eating it out of the container with a little bit of granola sprinkled on top, I love baking with it like in this muffin recipe. It adds more nutrition to baked goods and parfaits like this avocado key lime parfait made with siggis too!

Do you think I could substitute almond milk yogurt for the yogurt? I have a dairy allergy.
You could but the taste and texture might be a little different! I haven’t tried it!
