Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil or melted coconut oil
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • 1/4 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • Optional: 1/2 cup chopped nuts, chocolate chips, or raisins

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease lightly.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, pumpkin pie spice, and cinnamon.
  3. In another bowl, mix oil, brown sugar, granulated sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, pumpkin puree, and milk until smooth.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Fold in optional add-ins like nuts or chocolate chips if using.
  6. Divide batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
  7. Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Use homemade pumpkin puree for extra freshness if desired.
  • These muffins freeze well—store in an airtight container for up to 3 months.
  • Top with streusel or cinnamon sugar for a bakery-style finish.
