Ingredients
- 120 g (1/2 cup) vegetable oil
- 200 g (1 cup) granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs, at room temperature
- 240 g (1 cup) pure pumpkin puree
- 210 g (1 1/2 cups) all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
- 150 g (1/2 cup) Nutella
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F/217°C. Line a 12-count muffin pan with muffin liners. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk the oil, sugar, eggs, and pumpkin until combined.
- Sift the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and pumpkin pie spice into the wet ingredients and fold together until just combined. Careful not to overmix.
- Fill the muffin liners 3/4 full. Drop about 1 teaspoon of Nutella over each muffin and swirl with a toothpick or knife.
- Bake in the oven for 5 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F/177°C and continue baking for an additional 15-17 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the muffins to cool for 5 minutes in the hot pan, then remove them and set them on a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Storing: Keep covered at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerated for up to 1 week.
Freezing: Store your muffins in a freezer-safe bag or container in the freezer for up to 3 months. Allow the muffins to thaw overnight in the refrigerator. For a quick option, you can reheat them in the microwave for 30-45 seconds.
Pumpkin Pie Spice: You can use store-bought or make homemade pumpkin pie spice. If you have the spices on hand you could instead mix 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves.
Mini Muffins: Line a mini muffin pan with liners or spray with nonstick spray. Fill each mini muffin to the top with batter and bake in a preheated 350°F/177°C for 11-13 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
