Judys Classic Pumpkin Muffins

How many times have I found myself craving something sweet, comforting, and just a tad bit healthy? Too many to count, which is why Judy’s Classic Pumpkin Muffins have become a staple in my kitchen, especially during the fall. But let’s be honest, pumpkin is a year-round flavor in my book, and these muffins prove why.

Ingredients

• 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour (for a lighter texture, you can substitute half with whole wheat flour)
• 1 cup granulated sugar (or adjust to taste, but this is the sweet spot for me)
• 1/2 cup vegetable oil (or any neutral oil you have on hand)
• 2 large eggs (room temperature blends better)
• 1 cup canned pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
• 1/3 cup water (helps to keep the muffins moist)
• 1 tsp baking soda (make sure it’s fresh for the best rise)
• 1/2 tsp salt (balances the sweetness)
• 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon (or more if you’re a cinnamon lover like me)
• 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg (adds a warm depth of flavor)

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg until well combined.
3. In another bowl, beat the eggs lightly, then mix in the pumpkin puree, oil, and water until smooth.
4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Tip: Overmixing can lead to dense muffins, so stop when you no longer see dry flour.
5. Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full. Tip: An ice cream scoop makes this step mess-free and ensures uniform muffins.
6. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Tip: Ovens vary, so start checking at 20 minutes to avoid overbaking.
7. Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Just out of the oven, these muffins are wonderfully moist with a tender crumb, and the spices make the kitchen smell like a cozy autumn day. I love serving them warm with a dab of butter or, for an extra treat, a dollop of cream cheese frosting on top.
