Dry Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it with cooking spray.

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, salt, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until well combined.

  3. 3

    Mix Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, mix the canned pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well combined.

  4. 4

    Combine Ingredients

    Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, gently folding them together until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

  5. 5

    Add Butterscotch Chips

    Fold in the butterscotch chips until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

  6. 6

    Fill Muffin Tin

    Spoon the muffin batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full.

  7. 7

    Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

  8. 8

    Cool

    Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
