How to Make Pumpkin Muffins

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 350°. Lightly coat a muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray.

  2. Step 2

    In a large bowl, beat pumpkin, oil, applesauce, sugar and eggs until creamy. In a medium bowl, combine flours, nutmeg, cinnamon, cloves, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Add flour mixture to creamed mixture and stir to combine.

  3. Step 3

    Fill 12 muffin cups 3/4 full. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean and the tops are lightly browned. Remove muffins from pan and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
