Steps:
- Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F. Line every other cup in 2 muffin pans with muffin liners, for a total of 12 cups. (This will allow the tops to spread and the muffins to bake more evenly.)
- Cook the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat until melted and starting to brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Immediately pour the butter into a medium heatproof bowl and set aside.
- Sift the flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, baking powder, baking soda and salt into a large bowl. Set aside.
- Add the oil, pumpkin puree and 2 tablespoons water to the brown butter. Whisk until combined, about 20 seconds. Add the eggs and vanilla and whisk until smooth and lightened, about 30 seconds.
- Stir the liquid ingredients into the dry ingredients with a rubber spatula just until combined. Divide the batter evenly among the 12 liners (about a heaping 1/4 cup for each). Sprinkle the tops with the walnuts and pepitas. Sprinkle again with the raw sugar.
- Place both muffin pans on the center oven rack and turn the oven temperature down to 375 degrees F. Bake, rotating the pans about 3/4 of the way through baking, until a toothpick inserted into the muffins comes out with a just a few moist crumbs clinging to it, 24 to 26 minutes. Let cool in the pans on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Remove the muffins from the pan and let cool completely on the rack.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease 12 muffin cups or line with paper liners.
- Whisk pumpkin puree, coconut flour, coconut oil, agave nectar, eggs, cinnamon, vanilla extract, nutmeg, baking powder, and pumpkin pie spice together in a bowl until batter is smooth; fold in walnuts. Spoon about 3 tablespoons batter into each muffin cup.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean, 15 to 17 minutes.
Tips:
- Prep your ingredients. Before you start baking, measure and prep all of your ingredients. This will help you stay organized and ensure that you don't forget anything.
- Use fresh pumpkin puree. Fresh pumpkin puree will give your muffins the best flavor. If you don't have fresh pumpkin puree on hand, you can use canned pumpkin puree, but be sure to drain it well before using.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make your muffins tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
- Fill the muffin cups evenly. Use a spoon or an ice cream scoop to fill the muffin cups evenly. This will help ensure that all of your muffins are the same size and shape.
- Bake the muffins at the right temperature. The muffins should be baked at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
