Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 can (15 oz) pumpkin purée
  • 1½ cups sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • ¼ cup water
  • 1½ tsp vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients

  • 1¾ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • ½ tsp ground nutmeg
  • ¼ tsp ground cloves
  • ¼ tsp ground ginger

Instructions

  1. Prepare the oven and muffin tins: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease it well to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix wet ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin purée, sugar, eggs, vegetable oil, water, and vanilla extract. Whisk together until the mixture is smooth and evenly blended.
  3. Combine dry ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and ginger until all spices and leavening agents are evenly distributed.
  4. Combine wet and dry mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix as this can make the muffins dense.
  5. Fill muffin cups: Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about ¾ full to allow room for rising during baking.
  6. Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes. Check doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center of a muffin; it should come out clean or with just a few moist crumbs.
  7. Cool and serve: Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.

Notes

  • Ensure not to overmix the batter to keep the muffins light and fluffy.
  • Substitute vegetable oil with melted coconut oil or butter for a different flavor profile.
  • These muffins freeze well; store in an airtight container for up to 3 months.
  • For added texture, consider folding in ½ cup chopped walnuts or pecans.
  • Adjust spices if you prefer a milder or stronger pumpkin spice flavor.
