Preheat oven to 350-375.

Add pumpkin 1/2 cup at a time, gently but thoroughly mixing.

Combine flour and 1/2 cup oats. Slowly mix in flour/oat mixture, 1/2 cup at a time. Be careful not to make the batter too stiff.

Fold in chocolate chips.

Bake for 20 minutes in greased muffin tins at 350-375, or until muffin tops become firm and toothpick comes out nearly clean. Meanwhile, combine oats, brown sugar, and water to create glaze - texture should be slightly viscous.

Remove from heat, top each muffin evenly with glaze, and replace in oven for 2 minutes or so until glaze hardens.

Remove from tins, allow to cool on rack, and enjoy!

    Followed directions and they turned out well ... But then realized directions never tell you to add the egg (so I hadn't) and the amount of oatmeal in the directions is less than the amount in the Ingredient list. So I'm confused ... But they taste good. - 1/3/13

    I added an egg, changed the flour to 1.75C and oatmeal 1 C, and substituted 1/2 C mini chocolate chips for the chocolate. These were scrumptious and my children are requesting another batch. Also, I only got 15 muffins. 18 would be very small. - 1/17/08
