Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour 254 grams
  • 3/4 cup dark brown sugar 150 grams
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon salt fine
  • ½ teaspoon cloves ground
  • ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 3/4 cup buttermilk at room temperature
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter melted and cooled, 85 grams
  • 1 egg at room temperature, large
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree pure
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips 170 grams

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a standard muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a large bowl whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, and salt.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, butter, egg, pumpkin puree, and vanilla. Pour into the dry ingredients and stir with a rubber spatula until just combined. Gently stir in the chocolate chips. Do not overmix. Divide evenly among the muffin tin cups.
  4. Bake until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 20 to 22 minutes. Let cool until barely warm.
  5. Serve or store in an airtight at room temperature for 3 days. Reheat in the microwave for about 15 seconds if desired. Muffins can also be frozen in an airtight container for up to 3 months.

Notes

  • I don't recommend using buttermilk substitutes for best results. Learn more about buttermilk in baking here. If you cannot use buttermilk, use whole milk instead (1:1 ratio) but note that your muffins won't be quite as flavorful, and the pumpkin puree flavor may be more predominant. 
  • Be sure to use fresh spices for the most flavorful muffins. Older spices carry less flavor and may cause your muffins to be bland.
