Servings: 96 mini muffins
Calories: 72kcal
Ingredients
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- 1 cup butter softened
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 16 ounces pure pumpkin 1 can
- 1 ½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350° and spray miniature muffin cups with nonstick cooking spray or use mini muffin liners.
- In a medium bowl, mix the flour, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, salt, baking soda, and baking powder and set aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer cream the butter and the sugar until fluffy, about two minutes. Add eggs one at a time mixing well after each addition. Add the pumpkin and mix until well combine.
- Add the dry ingredients mixing just until combine. Stir in chocolate chips.
- Fill muffin cups ¾ full with batter. (I used a #50 scoop.)
- Bake 10 to 11 minutes until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool for 1 minute before transferring bites to a wire rack. (Bake 18-22 minutes for regular-sized muffins and 35-40 minutes for mini loaves.)
Notes
Regular-Sized Muffins: If you want to make regular-sized muffins, fill standard muffin cups ¾ full and bake for 18-22 minutes at 350°F until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Doing so with my recipe will yield approximately 18-20 regular-sized muffins instead of 48 mini ones.
Pumpkin Pie Spice Substitute: Substitute ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon plus ¼ teaspoon ground ginger, ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg and ⅛ teaspoon ground cloves for 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice.
Pumpkin Quality: Use only pure pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling, which contains added spices and sugar that will throw off the recipe's balance.
Storage: Store the muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze them for up to 3 months.
