Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup Brown sugar (packed)
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground cloves
• 1 cup Pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
• 0.5 cup Vegetable oil
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.25 cup Milk
• 0.75 cup Raisins or diced apples

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves.

Step 3

In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, eggs, vanilla extract, and milk until smooth and well combined.

Step 4

Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour the wet mixture into it. Gently fold everything together until just incorporated; avoid overmixing.

Step 5

If using raisins or diced apples, gently fold them into the batter until evenly distributed.

Step 6

Divide the batter evenly across the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 to 3/4 full.

Step 7

Bake the muffins in the preheated oven for 22-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Step 8

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

Step 9

Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your flavorful pumpkin muffins with a cup of coffee or tea!
