Time 48m

Yield 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 14

Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup whole wheat flour
1/3 cup brown sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
3/4 cup milk (I used 1%)
1 large egg, slightly beaten
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 cup pumpkin butter
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 cup sugar

Steps:

Preheat oven to 400°F.
Combine all dry ingredients in a medium bowl.
In a second medium bowl, mix together milk, egg, oil, and 1/2 cup pumpkin butter.
Make a well in the center of your dry ingredients and pour in milk mixture. Stir together till just moistened. Batter will be slightly lumpy.
Fill greased or paper lined muffin tin with half the batter-a little over a tablespoon in each cup. Then top that with a teaspoon of pumpkin butter, then spoon the rest of the batter on top of that, so that the pumpkin butter is in the center.
Stir together topping ingredients and sprinkle heavily over muffins.
Bake them for 15-18 minutes or until a toothpick through the center comes out clean.
Allow to cool for a few minute before removing from pan and place on a wire rack to cool.

Tips:

Use fresh or canned pumpkin puree: If using fresh pumpkin, roast and puree it before using. Canned pumpkin puree is a convenient option, but be sure to choose unsweetened puree.
Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in tough muffins. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
Fill the muffin cups only 2/3 full: This will prevent the muffins from overflowing in the oven.
Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This usually takes around 20-25 minutes.
Let the muffins cool completely before frosting or serving: This will help the frosting to set properly and prevent the muffins from becoming soggy.

Conclusion:

Pumpkin butter muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make fall treat. They're perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a snack. With their moist texture, sweet pumpkin flavor, and creamy frosting, these muffins are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a festive and flavorful muffin recipe, give these pumpkin butter muffins a try!
