How to Make Moist Pumpkin Oatmeal Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line muffin tins with paper liners or grease well.
  2. In a large bowl, combine 2 cups rolled oats, 1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree, 1 cup packed brown sugar, 1/2 cup vegetable oil, 1 cup buttermilk, 2 large eggs, and 1/2 cup water. Mix well.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, 1 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Fill muffin cups about 2/3 full.
  6. Bake regular-sized muffins for 18-20 minutes, or mini muffins for 15-16 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
