Mini Pumpkin Mufins
I woke up this morning and was going to make up cookies, but then realized that I was out of butter/margarine. I had a meeting this morning and wanted to take in a baked treat of some kind, so I had a mini brainstorm and came up with this. You can make these muffins in a regular size muffin tin as well. I'll add those instructions below.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp. baking soda
15 oz canned pumpkin
1/3 cup vegetable oil
2 eggs
1 tsp pumpkin pie spice(I was out of this, so I mixed a 1/4 tsp each of cinnamon, cloves, ginger, nutmeg and allspice and measured 1 tsp from this)
1 1/4 cup sugar
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
In a separate small bowl mix 1 Tbsp sugar and 1 tsp cinnamon to sprinkle on top.
Directions:
Make sure oven rack is in the middle of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees.
In a small mixing bowl stir together flour and baking powder and set aside.
In a larger bowl mix pumpkin, oil, eggs, pumpkin pie spice, sugar, baking soda and salt. Whisk until smooth then add in flour mixture, mixing until just combined.
Spray mini muffin tins with cooking spray and fill each muffin cup one half to two-thirds full. Sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon mixture and bake for 12 minutes.
Let rest in pan for about 5 minutes before removing from pan.
Yields about 45 mini muffins.
For regular 1/2 cup muffin tin you might want to use cupcake liners. Fill each about 3/4 full, sprinkle with cinnamon sugar mixture and bake 25-30 minutes or until a wooden toothpick inserted comes out clean. Let the muffins rest in the pan for at least 5 minutes before removing.
