  1. For dry ingredient preparation, whisk both flours, baking soda and powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt in a bowl. Once combined, add 1/3 at a time to wet mixture.
  2. Once fully combined, fold in ¼ cup of finely chopped pecans and ¼ cup of chocolate chips.
  3. Coat 12 muffin tins with cooking spray or using muffin liners. Fill each tin ¾ of the way with muffin batter. Once all filled, sprinkle remaining chocolate chips and pecans on top of muffin batter. Bake for 15-20 minutes. Once cooked fully (to check, poke a cupcake at the center with a toothpick, if it comes out clean it is ready) let cool for 5-10 minutes before removing muffins from tin.

  1. Serve warm or cool—if storing muffins, wait until they are completely cool, then transfer them into an airtight storage container with paper towels lining the bottom and on top of the muffins to ensure no added moisture enters the muffins. (If you are planning on storing muffins for more than 4 days, freeze them individually in plastic bags. When you want to eat them, let them thaw at room temperature or rewarm them very gently in the microwave)
