Pumpkin Breakfast Muffins
These pumpkin muffins are a great carb “treat” I stumbled on!
I’ve been working on my nutrition and strength routines during this marathon training cycle. Specifically, I’ve been very aware of my protein intake. Carbs are great, but I now look at them more as a treat, not as the staple of my diet. I’m excited to share some recipes I’ve come across during my nutrition journey – and be able to catalog them on the blog for ease of reference.
Because, as any true marathoner, I’m already looking forward to my next training cycle where I can refine things a little bit more, become stronger, more mindful of what I’m eating/when… all of that exciting stuff :). In the meantime, enjoy this first fall-inspired muffin recipe!
