How to Make Autumn Pumpkin Spice Muffins
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease well.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves, 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1 cup granulated sugar.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients: 1 cup pumpkin puree, 1/2 cup melted unsalted butter, 1/2 cup buttermilk, 2 large eggs, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Gently pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Fill the muffin cups about 2/3 full.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
