This is probably the most excited I've been in a while to share a recipe with you guys. This is my second fall season of trying to perfect this pumpkin muffin recipe. I tried it several times last season and couldn't get it just right, so I picked right back up where I left off this year, trying to find the PERFECT clean eating pumpkin muffin. I tried multiple gluten free flour options before ...

Overnight Crock-Pot Pumpkin Apple Butter
If you are from an area of the country/world that doesn't have apple butter, and you've never heard of it/don't know what it is, allow me to please explain to you the beauty of this delicious item.

It's like jam in the way that you ...
