How to Make Pumpkin Butter Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease well.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, ¾ cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground ginger, ¼ teaspoon ground cloves, ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg, and a pinch of salt.
  3. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients: 1 cup milk, 1 large egg, ¼ cup vegetable oil, and ½ cup pumpkin butter.
  4. Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and gradually pour in the wet ingredients. Gently stir until just combined; the batter will be slightly lumpy.
  5. Fill each muffin cup about halfway with batter (approximately 1 tablespoon).
  6. Top each muffin with ½ teaspoon of pumpkin butter.
  7. Spoon the remaining batter over the pumpkin butter, ensuring it’s mostly covered.
  8. In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons brown sugar and ½ teaspoon cinnamon.
  9. Sprinkle the brown sugar mixture generously over the muffins.
  10. Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  11. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
