How to make pumpkin muffins

  1. Prepare the pumpkin: Cook (steam or boil) peeled and seeded pumpkin until tender. Allow to cool then mash with a fork until smooth.
  2. Make the batter: Combine oat flour, all purpose or cake flour, baking powder, salt and spices in a mixing bowl. In a separate bowl or mixing jug, combine the mashed pumpkin, eggs, vegetable oil and brown sugar. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and mix until just combined.
  3. Bake the muffins: Line a 12-hole muffin pan with paper liners. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin pan. Combine sugar and cinnamon and sprinkle over the batter. Place in a preheated oven and allow to bake for 15-20 minutes until a skewer inserted comes out clean. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely before serving.

How long to bake pumpkin muffins

Bake muffins until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Depending on the batter and oven temperature, muffins should take no longer than 20-25 minutes to bake.

Can you freeze pumpkin muffins?

Yes, they freeze very well. Bake and allow to cool completely then transfer to a freezer bag and seal. Freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw completely before serving.

    Is it safe to use gluten free flour in place of regular flour? I have a gluten allergy.

      As long as it’s a gluten free flour that is 1:1, you should be fine.

    Hi! This recipe looks delicious but I don’t have oat flour… is it a must? Can it be substituted or made?

        I usually make my own. I have a high-powered blender and just blend rolled oats into a fine flour.
