Ingredients

  • 180 cup - canned pumpkin purée
  • ¼ cup - neutral oil
  • ½ cup - brown sugar
  • ¼ cup - granulated sugar
  • 1 - egg
  • 1 ½ teaspoons - pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup - all purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons - pumpkin pie spice
  • ¾ tsp - baking powder
  • ¼ tsp - Kosher salt
  • roasted pumpkin seeds or raw sugar

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (204°C). Line a standard cupcake pan with 6 paper liners, leaving an empty cup in-between each.
  2. Add the canned pumpkin purée, avocado oil, brown sugar, granulated sugar, egg, and vanilla extract to a medium mixing bowl. Whisk the mixture until it's very smooth.
  3. Then, add the all purpose flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder, and Kosher salt. Fold the wet and dry ingredients together just until there are no more streaks of flour. A few lumps are ok! If you have time, cover the bowl and let the batter sit for 15-30 minutes to give the baking powder a head start.
  4. Using a cupcake scoop, divide the batter between the muffin liners, filling them all the way to the top. Sprinkle the tops with roasted pumpkin seeds or raw sugar, if using.
  5. Bake the muffins for 5 minutes. Then, without opening the oven door, reduce the heat to 350°F (177°C) and bake the muffins for 14-16 more minutes, until an inserted toothpick has just a few moist crumbs. Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes and then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
