Pumpkin Butterscotch Muffins Recipe
Description
This recipe blends a mixture of warm spices and sugars with canned pumpkin puree and melted butter to achieve a soft, moist batter. The butterscotch chips, coated lightly in flour to prevent sinking, add sweet bursts throughout the muffins. Baking at 350 degrees produces golden muffins with a tender texture.
The balance of brown and white sugars alongside pumpkin and spices gives a flavorful profile fitting for fall or anytime comfort baking. Testing doneness with a toothpick ensures they are baked through without drying out.

- 1 ¾ cup all-purpose flour
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ½ cup sugar

- 2 egg
- ½ cup butter melted
- 1 cup pumpkin canned
