Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the cups.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, pumpkin puree, Cinnamon Infused Olive Oil, milk, and vanilla until smooth.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir just until combined; do not overmix.
- Fold in the pecans, if using.
- Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
- Bake for 18 to 22 minutes, until the tops spring back lightly and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean.
- Cool the muffins in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to finish cooling.
- Serve warm or at room temperature.
Notes
Pumpkin puree should be plain pumpkin, not pumpkin pie filling. For a sweeter finish, add a simple cinnamon-sugar sprinkle before baking. If you want a more bakery-style top, let the batter rest for 10 minutes before scooping it into the pan.
