PUMPKIN DOUGHNUT MUFFINS (MARTHA STEWART)
These are moist and cakey and rolled in cinnamon sugar. The recipe is from Martha Stewart's "Everyday Food" (Nov. 2010). It's also good with a little added vanilla to the batter. The magazine said the recipe makes 12 muffins, but I got about 18. This also make great mini muffins; bake for about 15 minutes. Muffins may be frozen up to 3 months. Reheat in a 350 F oven, then coat in butter and sugar.

Tips:
- Use fresh pumpkin puree: Homemade pumpkin puree has a richer flavor than canned puree. To make your own, simply roast a pumpkin in the oven until tender, then scoop out the flesh and blend it until smooth.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing will make the muffins tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined. If you overmix, the muffins will be dense and dry.
- Use a muffin scoop to fill the muffin cups: This will help ensure that the muffins are all the same size and shape. It will also prevent you from overfilling the muffin cups.
- Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will ensure that the muffins are cooked through. If you underbake the muffins, they will be gooey in the center.
- Let the muffins cool completely before frosting them: This will help prevent the frosting from melting.
