Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1.5 cups granulated sugar
• 0.5 cups brown sugar, packed
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 0.5 teaspoons ground ginger
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 1 cups canned pumpkin puree
• 0.5 cups vegetable oil
• 0.25 cups whole milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 pieces large eggs
• 0.5 cups optional add-ins (e.g., chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or dried cranberries)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the cups with cooking spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking soda, baking powder, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground ginger, and salt. Whisk together until fully combined and free of lumps.

Step 3

In a separate medium-sized bowl, mix together the canned pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, whole milk, vanilla extract, and eggs. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and fully incorporated.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients. Using a spatula or wooden spoon, gently fold the mixture together until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the muffins dense.

Step 5

If you're adding optional ingredients like chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or dried cranberries, fold them into the batter at this stage.

Step 6

Evenly distribute the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about three-quarters full.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 18–22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Step 8

Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Serve warm or at room temperature. These muffins are delicious on their own or with a spread of butter or cream cheese. Enjoy!
