Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it well.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine the sugar, pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
  4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
  5. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  6. Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  7. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, you can add 1/2 cup of chopped pecans or walnuts to the batter.
  • Ensure your pumpkin puree is not pumpkin pie filling, as it contains added sugar and spices.
  • For even moister muffins, you can substitute half of the vegetable oil with unsweetened applesauce.
