Ingredients
Scale
1 cup pumpkin puree
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 cup sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.
In a large bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, and sugar. Mix well.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Fold in walnuts if using.
Fill each muffin cup about 2/3 full with batter.
Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
For extra moisture, add a little more pumpkin puree.
These muffins freeze well; store in an airtight container.
