Pumpkin Muffins

Pumpkin muffins are one of my favorite fall treats. I like that this recipe uses a whole can of pumpkin.

Preheat the oven to 375 and prepare a muffin pan with liners or spray.

In a medium bowl, mix together the wet ingredients:

1 c. sugar

1/2 c. brown sugar

2 eggs

1 t. vanilla

15 oz. can of pumpkin (I have also use cooked, pureed pie pumpkin, butternut squash, or sweet potato. The resulting flavor is almost exactly the same.)

1/2 c. oil

In a separate bowl, mix the dry ingredients:

1 3/4 c. flour

1 t. baking soda

1/2 t. salt

2 t. cinnamon

1/4 t. nutmeg

1/4 t. ginger

1 c. chocolate chips

3/4 c. chopped walnuts

Make a well in the dry ingredients and stir in the wet ingredients until just combined. Fill the muffin cups 2/3 of the way full. Bake at 375 for 19-21 minutes.

Pumpkin muffins are especially delicious warm. I think they’re even better the next day when reheated so the chocolate chips get melty again. The spices blend in with the other flavors too.
