Tips:

  • Use fresh pumpkin puree: Fresh pumpkin puree will give your muffins a more intense flavor than canned puree. To make your own pumpkin 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 just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Let the muffins cool completely before storing them: This will help them to keep their shape and texture.
  • Store the muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the freezer for up to 2 months: If you're freezing the muffins, thaw them overnight in the refrigerator before serving.
