EASY PUMPKIN MUFFINS



EASY PUMPKIN MUFFINS image

I tried this recipe early this morning. It's so easy, you just won't believe it. These muffins are so dense and old fashioned, that others will think there are more ingredients than they contain. I think they're nutritious as well.

Provided by Barbara Youlio

Categories     Muffins

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 4

15 oz can of solid pumpkin (not pumpkin pie mix)
1 pkg carrot cake mix or spice cake mix
1/4 c walnut pieces
1/4 c raisins

Steps:

  • 1. Mix the canned pumpkin with the dry cake mix (just the dry cake mix).
  • 2. Add the walnuts and stir gently. I soak the raisins in hot water for a few minutes, so they will plump up a little. Drain raisins and add to the mixture. Use an ice cream scoop to portion each muffin.
  • 3. Put batter in paper lined muffin tins (I used regular tins), and bake at 350 degrees for about 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and take out each muffin to cool, or eat them while their warm. Either way they are delicious.
  • 4. You may use a mini muffin pan lined with papers. If so, please check the time by testing for doneness. It may be about 12 to 15 minutes. Insert a tooth pick in a muffin, to make sure it's done.

Tips:

  • Use fresh pumpkin puree: Fresh pumpkin puree gives muffins a more intense pumpkin flavor. You can make your own pumpkin puree by roasting a pumpkin and blending the flesh, or you can use canned pumpkin puree.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can make muffins tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Fill muffin tins 2/3 full: This will prevent the muffins from overflowing.
  • Bake muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This usually takes about 20-25 minutes.
  • Let muffins cool before frosting: This will help prevent the frosting from melting.
  • Store muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days: You can also freeze muffins for up to 2 months.

Conclusion:

These pumpkin muffins are a delicious and easy fall treat. They're perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. With their moist, fluffy texture and sweet pumpkin flavor, these muffins are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy pumpkin recipe, give these muffins a try. You won't be disappointed!
