Delicious Pumpkin Muffins Recipe
Ingredients
This recipe for pumpkin muffins is a simple one, and you’ll need just a few ingredients to make it. You’ll need:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- Optional: 1 cup chopped walnuts
Instructions
To make this delicious pumpkin muffins recipe, you’ll need to preheat your oven to 350°F. Then, you’ll want to grab a large mixing bowl and combine the following ingredients: flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Once the dry ingredients are mixed together, set them aside.
In a separate bowl, you’ll want to combine the melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Whisk them together until they’re fully combined. Then, add in the eggs, one at a time, whisking after each addition. After that, add in the vanilla extract and pumpkin puree. Whisk until everything is combined.
Slowly add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until everything is just combined. Be careful not to overmix the batter, as this can lead to tough muffins. If desired, add in the chopped walnuts and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
Grab your muffin tin and line it with paper liners. Scoop the batter into the liners, filling them about ¾ of the way full. Bake for 20-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the muffins comes out clean. Let cool for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
Enjoy your pumpkin muffins! These are definitely best enjoyed fresh, but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
