Flavor-fall Muffins

I love pumpkin. I'll just get that out there. Anything with pumpkin in it I'm probably gonna love. I wanted pumpkin muffins, but none of the recipes I found were really appealing to my tastebuds so I created my own. It's got pumpkin (obviously), chocolate, cranberries, and an oatmeal topping. I thought these turned out great. They also have no added oil; this makes them a tad dense but I don't mind that in a muffin.
