Ingredients
  • 1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree
  • 4 eggs
  • ½ cup vegetable oil or ½ cup applesauce
  • ½ cup butter, melted
  • ⅔ cup water
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 2 cups white sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 3½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp baking soda
  • 1½ teaspoons salt
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp ground nutmeg
  • ½ tsp ground cloves
  • ¼ tsp ground ginger
  • 2 cups white chocolate chips
  • ½ cup finely ground nuts (pecans or walnuts)
  • GLAZE:
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 Tablespoons milk
  • ¼ tsp ground cinnamon
  • ⅛ tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1 pinch ground ginger
  • 1 pinch ground cloves
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. Spray muffin tin with non stick cooking spray.
  3. In a large bowl, mix together pumpkin, eggs, oil or applesauce (I used ¼ cup of each), butter, water, sugars and vanilla until well blended.
  4. In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and ginger.
  5. Stir the dry ingredients into the pumpkin mixture until just blended.
  6. Add ground nuts, if desired, and white chocolate chips and stir until combined.
  7. Pour batter into the muffin pan, filling each cup about ¾ full.
  8. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let muffins cool for a few minutes in the pan and then carefully remove to a cooling rack.
  10. Meanwhile, mix the glaze ingredients (I simply mixed it with a fork). When muffins are cooled completely, sprinkle the glaze over each muffin and let the glaze set for at least 30 minutes before eating.
