Elviira gives some very useful hints and tips on how to cook these delicious low carb muffins, which you will find here
To make your own - here is Betty Crocker's easy recipe for Pumpkin Spice
To start, you’ll need all of three minutes and the following ingredients:
3 tablespoons ground cinnamon, 2 teaspoons ground ginger, 2 teaspoons ground nutmeg,
1 ½ teaspoons ground allspice and 1 ½ teaspoons ground cloves.
Mix the spices together in a small bowl ... doesn't it smell lovely
Store the mixture in a clean small jar or spice container.
... and just because we are talking about pumpkins
I couldn't resist putting this photo up

Pumpkin is the flavor of the season.
They look delicious, a real treat for halloween. Lovely photo of your grandson.
Hello, The pumpkin Spice muffins would be yummy to have with my coffee now. Cute shot of your grandson! Happy Friday, enjoy your weekend!
That sounds delicious and your grandson is a cutie! Have a great day!
These sound delicious! Yes, pumpkin pie spice is readily available here, but what are erythritol crystals? I'm assuming a sugar substitute--could you use sugar instead? A little trivia--I live in Illinois, which is the largest pumpkin producing state in the U.S. We always enjoy a trip to a nearby pumpkin patch each fall, usually taking one or more of the grandkids.
Now this is something I would love to sink my teeth into...yummy!!!
Your grandson is adorable and such a lovely photo.
What a happy post~
Oooh those muffins look great!
I might have a go at putting together some pumpkin spice :-)
Sooo much better for me than that donut :) happy weekend Jan!
Oh yes, it is pumpkin time.
Every year I make pumpkin bread. : )
Hello Rose ... you asked about erythritol crystals. Erythritol is 70% as sweet as table sugar, yet it is virtually non-caloric, does not affect blood sugar, and does not cause tooth decay. Under U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) labeling requirements, it has a caloric value of 0.2 calories per gram http://www.omfoods.com/sweeteners/erythritol-crystals/
For those who are not diabetic it should be possible to use sugar instead.
Interested to read that you live in the 'Pumpkin State' - the grandchildren love to go and choose their pumpkins don't they.
Many thanks for your comment
All the best Jan

Their taste must be lovely: the ingredients of the pumpkin pie spice sounds... very Christmassy to me. :)
