Pumpkin Spice Muffins
Baked from Scratch
There is nothing quite like pumpkin spice muffins warm from the oven, so it’s a good thing it is easy to make them from scratch.
Muffins are great for breakfast or a snack.
If you are like me, you can also enjoy one for dessert.
The recipe calls for pumpkin puree, so make sure you don’t accidentally use “pumpkin pie filling.”
That has sugar and other extra ingredients in the can, but all you want for this recipe is pure pumpkin puree.
These muffins have coarse decorating sugar on top, which looks great and adds a bit of sweetness.
However, you can leave it off, if you prefer to cut back on the sugar.
Enjoy!
