PUMPKIN NUT MUFFINS



Pumpkin Nut Muffins image

I really like the fact that this recipe uses a whole can of pumpkin, instead of 1 cup or so. It also uses half whole-wheat flour/half white flour and half oil/ half applesauce, so you feel like you're eating somewhat healthy. If you prefer a sweeter muffin, increase the sugar to taste. Makes 18 muffins.

PUMPKIN NUT MUFFINS



Pumpkin Nut Muffins image

I love muffins because they are not too sweet. These hit the spot on a cool rainy morning!

Provided by Lynn Socko

Categories     Muffins

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 c granulated sugar
1/2 c brown sugar, firmly packed
1 c canned pumpkin
2 eggs
1/4 c butter, room temp
1/4 c cooking oil
1/2 tsp vanilla
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp cinnamon
1/8 tsp each of ginger and nutmeg
1 1/2 c all purpose flour
1/2 c sliced almonds (or any chopped nut)
1/2 c raisins, opt

Steps:

  • 1. In mixing bowl add both sugars, butter, oil, vanilla, baking soda, and spices. Mix till well blended then add eggs and mix incorporated. Add half the flour and mix in, then the other half. Once batter is smooth add in nuts and raisins, mix to incorporate.
  • 2. Spray one 6 cup muffin tin with Baker's Joy or non stick spray. Fill 2/3 way up. Bake in preheated 350º oven for about 35 min or till toothpick comes out clean.

Tips:

  • Use fresh pumpkin puree: Fresh pumpkin puree gives your muffins a richer flavor and texture than canned puree. To make your own puree, simply roast a pumpkin in the oven until tender, then scoop out the flesh and puree it in a food processor.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make your muffins tough. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
  • Use muffin liners: Muffin liners make it easy to remove the muffins from the pan and prevent them from sticking. If you don't have muffin liners, you can grease the muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This is the best way to ensure that the muffins are cooked through.
  • Let the muffins cool completely before frosting them: This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

Pumpkin nut muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make fall treat. They are perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. With their moist texture, sweet pumpkin flavor, and crunchy nuts, these muffins are sure to please everyone. So next time you're looking for a tasty and festive treat, give these pumpkin nut muffins a try!
