Pumpkin muffins recipe


Even though pumpkins aren’t in season until fall in South Africa, the Halloween is nonetheless widely celebrated. Good pumpkins are still widely available, so go ahead and whip up a batch of pumpkin muffins. These cheery and delicious baked goods are perfect for social gatherings, such as coffee breaks or celebrations. They’re fresh, which means you have a great chance to decorate them for occasions, and the inspiration to do so will flow freely.

Pumpkin muffins suggestions

No fresh pumpkins are required, but I recommend using the kind of pumpkin puree usually reserved for baking pies. If you don’t have any on hand, feel free to substitute chopped nuts like almonds or walnuts for the raisins. Also, before baking, you may sprinkle some of these nuts on top of the muffins. Sprinkle some nuts on top, or pipe some frosting, for your pumpkin muffins. Put some butter on them and accompany them with your favourite hot beverage, like tea or latte.

Baking is entertaining, and unusual flavours quickly gain popularity. If you’re looking for a tasty treat to go with your afternoon tea, try one of these pumpkin muffins.
