Ingredients
Scale
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup pumpkin puree
1/4 cup milk
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it well.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and ginger.
In a large bowl, cream together the granulated sugar and softened butter until light and fluffy.
Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
Add the pumpkin puree and mix until combined.
Alternately add the dry ingredients and the milk to the wet ingredients, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
For an extra touch, sprinkle a little cinnamon sugar on top before baking.
Ensure your pumpkin puree is not pumpkin pie filling.
