Instructions
Creating Sugar Cookie Pumpkin Cupcake Muffins is simple if you follow these easy steps:
1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly.
2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract. Stir until well combined.
3. Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger.
4. Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
5. Fill Muffin Cups: Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about ¾ full. If desired, sprinkle the tops with granulated sugar for added sweetness and crunch.
6. Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
7. Cool: Once baked, remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
