Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon Ground ginger
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground cloves
• 1 cup Pumpkin puree
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup Brown sugar
• 0.5 cup Vegetable oil
• 2 Large eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.25 cup Milk

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, ground cinnamon, ground ginger, ground nutmeg, and ground cloves until well combined.

Step 3

In another medium-sized bowl, mix together the pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, brown sugar, vegetable oil, eggs, vanilla extract, and milk. Stir until the mixture is smooth and everything is well incorporated.

Step 4

Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour the wet mixture into the center.

Step 5

Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can lead to dense muffins.

Step 6

Divide the batter evenly among the 12 prepared muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Step 8

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

Step 9

Enjoy your homemade nut-free pumpkin spice muffins warm or at room temperature!
