Time 55m

Yield Makes 24

Number Of Ingredients 13

Nonstick cooking spray
1 cup pure pumpkin puree (from a 15-ounce can)
1/2 cup buttermilk
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
1 cup packed light brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
3 large eggs
Cream Cheese Frosting

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees, with racks in upper and lower thirds. Lightly coat 24 standard muffin cups with cooking spray or line with paper liners. In a medium bowl, whisk together pumpkin puree, buttermilk, and vanilla. In another medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and pumpkin pie spice. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat butter and sugars on medium-high until light and fluffy, 3 to 5 minutes. Beat in eggs, one at a time, scraping down bowl as needed. With mixer on low, beat in flour mixture in 3 additions, alternating with 2 additions pumpkin mixture, until combined.
  • Spoon 1/4 cup batter into each muffin cup. Bake until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 18 to 20 minutes, rotating pans halfway though. Let cupcakes cool in pans on wire racks, 15 minutes. Remove cupcakes from pans and let cool completely on racks, 10 minutes. To serve, spread frosting onto cooled cupcakes.

These cupcakes were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I would use less sugar next time. The frosting was also a little too thick, but it was still tasty.

These cupcakes were a disappointment. The pumpkin spice flavor was weak and the cupcakes were dry. The frosting was also too sweet. I won't be making these again.
