Pumpkin Muffins
Description
This recipe begins by whisking together pumpkin puree with eggs, vegetable oil, water, and sugar. Dry ingredients such as flour, baking soda, salt, and ground spices including cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and a pinch of ginger are added and mixed just until incorporated to avoid tough muffins.
Portioned using a 1/4 cup scoop into paper-lined muffin tins, the batter bakes at 350°F for about 18 to 20 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The muffins have a moist texture from the pumpkin and oil, with the warm spice blend lending an autumnal character.
These muffins are suitable for snacks, breakfast, or dessert. The moderate sugar level balances the pumpkin’s natural earthiness without overwhelming the spices.
