Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 1.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoons Ground ginger
• 0.25 teaspoons Ground nutmeg
• 0.25 teaspoons Ground cloves
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cups Brown sugar (packed)
• 1 cups Pumpkin puree
• 0.5 cups Vegetable oil
• 0.5 cups Plain Greek yogurt
• 2 pieces Large eggs
• 1.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 0.25 cups Crystallized ginger (finely chopped)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In another bowl, combine the granulated sugar, brown sugar, pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, Greek yogurt, eggs, and vanilla extract. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well-blended.

Step 4

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined; do not overmix.

Step 5

Fold in the finely chopped crystallized ginger, ensuring it is evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 6

Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.

Step 7

Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 22–25 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 pan for 5–10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Enjoy the muffins warm or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
