Tips:

  • Use fresh pumpkin puree. Fresh pumpkin puree has a richer flavor than canned puree. To make your own puree, simply roast a pumpkin and then blend it until smooth.
  • Use whole wheat flour. Whole wheat flour is a healthier option than all-purpose flour and it gives the muffins a more nutty flavor.
  • Add spices. Spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger give pumpkin muffins their classic fall flavor. Feel free to experiment with different spices to create your own unique blend.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter can make the muffins tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This usually takes about 20-25 minutes.

Conclusion:

These whole wheat pumpkin muffins are a delicious and healthy way to enjoy the fall season. They're perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. And they're also easy to make, so you can whip up a batch in no time. So what are you waiting for? Give these muffins a try today!
