Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients
  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil

Equipment

  • Muffin tin
  • Paper liners (optional)
  • Large bowl
  • Medium bowl
  • Whisk
  • Spatula
  • Wire rack

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease it well.
Mixing
  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, and salt.
  2. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, egg, milk, and vegetable oil.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix with a spatula until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Baking
  1. Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups.
  2. Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  3. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Do not overmix the batter; this can lead to tough muffins. For extra flavor, you can add a handful of chocolate chips or chopped nuts to the batter.
