Main Ingredients
  • 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 0.5 tsp baking soda
  • 0.75 tsp salt
  • 1.5 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 0.5 tsp ground nutmeg

Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger for 20 seconds. Make a well in the center and set aside.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together sugar, oil, pumpkin, eggs, and apple juice until well blended.
  4. Pour the pumpkin mixture into the flour mixture and fold with a spatula just until combined.
  5. Divide the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling each nearly full.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the centers comes out clean.
  7. Allow muffins to cool in the pan for several minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container.

Notes

Use high-quality pumpkin puree for best flavor. These muffins can be frozen for later use.
