Monthly Munchies: October
Pumpkin Muffins
Note- should yield a dozen
Ingredients:
- 1 ¾ cups of all purpose flour
- 1 cup of sugar
- ½ cup of dark brown sugar
- 1 tsp of baking soda
- ½ tsp of salt
- 2 tsp of cinnamon
- ¼ tsp of ground cloves
- ¼ tsp of nutmeg
- 2 eggs
- 1 15 ounce can of pure pumpkin puree
- ½ cup of coconut oil, melted
- 1 tsp of vanilla extract
Instructions:
Step 1- Preheat the oven to 375 F. Prepare a muffin tin with 12 paper liners.
Step 2- Measure the flour, sugar, baking soda, salt, and spices into a medium bowl to whisk.
Step 3- In a separate bowl whisk combining the eggs, pumpkin puree, coconut oil and vanilla extract.
Step 4- Pour the wet and dry ingredients together and mix. Don’t mix them too much, just stir until all the ingredients are dissolved into the batter.
Step 5- It would be useful to use a large scoop to make sure you are evenly distributing the batter between each muffin. Fill each most of the way to the top to create a fluffy, puffy, dome shape once cooked.
Step 6- Finally, bake your muffins for 20-22 minutes or until the toothpick trick proves otherwise. Enjoy your pumpkin goodness!
