OATMEAL PUMPKIN MUFFINS

ugly af.
big, blarpity, blops of brown sugar and pumpkin and oats
and a whole lotta ugly.
look:

tight?
maybe.
delicious, certainly.
y'wanna know more?
really?
they're muffins, dude.
just like how you'd imagine.
but here's a recipe so you can munch up a few:
-

PUMPKIN OAT MUFFINS!
-
preheat your oven to 350℉
-
grease up some muffin tins
-
in a medium mixing bowl, cream together:
1 stick (8 T) vegan butter;
1/2 tsp salt;
1 tsp vanilla;
1 cup sugar;
cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, ginger...
add in:
1/2 cup pumpkin puree;
1/2 cup vanilla non-dairy yogurt;
stir it well, rock some socks, get it sloppy, and add:
1 1/2 cups king arthur flour;
1/2 cup oat flour;
2 tsp baking powder;
1 tsp baking soda;
1/2 cup rolled oats;
3/4 cup non-dairy milk.
stir it up, get it all nicey-nice, then scoop it into those greased cups.
-
next up, in that same bowl,
cream together:
3 T vegan butter;
2 T powdered sugar;
3 T brown sugar;
3 T rolled oats;
3 T flour;
cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg, vanilla......
get it all crOmbly, and sprankle it on top of those muffs BEFORE you bake it.
30 minutes later, you'll be eatin' all the tastiest pumplemuffs ever.
that's the truth and the order of operations.
the results i got are pretty freaking good is all i'm saying..
***********
in other news, crabtree has a hurt leg.
i don't know what's wrong.
it seems like it's his shoulder, though, which sounds expensive.
now here's the thing-
we will NOT be doing surgeries.
that's just not doable for my dude.
our time together is already attenuated,
and i can't imagine he'll be happier if he's hemmed up and incapacitated.
i'm broken up inside about it.
we'll go to the vet today if they'll see us,
and decide what we're doing accordingly.
my fingers are crossed and my heart is tight in my chest.
and that's legit only about 30% because of the dog.
november is hell on my heart,
and my feelings, and my eyes, and my time.....
all these gentle hearts out there.
and then there's mine.
it all feels like there's no blood anywhere left in my body.
exsanguinated by emotions.
that's new;
never quiet, never soft.....
