Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a muffin pan by lining it with paper liners or lightly greasing each cup.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the canned pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, brown sugar, buttermilk, melted coconut oil, egg, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and well blended.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients and gently fold them together using a spatula, being careful not to over-mix.
  5. Fold in the rolled oats until evenly distributed.
  6. Scoop about ⅓ cup of the batter into each prepared muffin cup, filling them about two-thirds full.
  7. Place the muffin pan into the preheated oven and bake for 20 to 22 minutes, testing with a toothpick for doneness.
  8. Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
