These Spiced Pumpkin Muffins are a delightful treat, perfect for breakfast or a snack.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Ensure your oven is fully preheated before baking for even cooking.
In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
Sift the dry ingredients together to avoid lumps.
In another bowl, whisk together the canned pumpkin, brown sugar, milk, eggs, and melted butter.
Ensure the melted butter is not too hot to prevent cooking the eggs.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Do not overmix to keep the muffins tender.
Spoon the batter evenly into a greased or lined muffin tin.
Fill each cup about three-quarters full for a nice dome shape.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Rotate the muffin tin halfway through baking for even cooking.
Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Cooling on a wire rack prevents the muffins from becoming soggy.
Serve the muffins warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
Pair with a hot beverage for a cozy treat.
