count down to Thanksgiving #10- pumpkin patch muffins...

since our family usually eats at like 2ish on Thanksgiving Day, i don't like to eat a big breakfast.  but i can't completely wait til then to eat.  So these are an easy fun & light little breakfast.  my mom made them all the time when we were growing up & it brings back fun memories!  Maybe they can become a tradition at your house.

{super yummy with honey butter}

3 cups flour

1 cup sugar
