A pumpkin muffin is always a good idea, but a cheesecake layer takes your seasonal favorite to another dimension. This single-serve pumpkin cheesecake muffin has honey-sweetened cream cheese swirled right into a Kodiak Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffin Cup, along with pumpkin purée and an egg for 23 grams of protein and 7 grams of fiber per serving.
It takes five minutes to put together and 90 seconds in the microwave, and there's only one small bowl to wash. Made for one, because some things you just don't split.
