La cuisiniere! |
Our frozen stash of pureed, cooked pumpkin has nearly been depleted! We couldn't contain ourselves...the draw of the pumpkin was huge. Are you ready to get your own pumpkin on? You can use homemade, fresh cooked, or store-bought canned pumpkin for these recipes. You will not regret it for a moment if you use fresh pumpkin versus canned! (I promise.)
The Ramsey Farms Pumpkin Muffins
This tasty treat actually started culinary life as a recipe from Food.com called "Mom's Best Pumpkin Bread" (MBPB). My mama didn't make it and the smaller muffins work so much better than a big loaf. So MBPB is now "My Daughter's Awesome Pumpkin Muffins"! She added the frosting that didn't appear in the original recipe. You know, we get a little wild and crazy around here sometimes!Ingredients
- 3 cups sugar
- 4 eggs
- 1 cup oil
- 1 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp nutmeg
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 2/3 cup water
- 29 ounces (3 2/3 cups) pumpkin
- 3 1/2 cups flour
- 2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
Directions
- In a large bowl, mix ingredients together in the given order.
- Scoop out into greased muffin pans; filling about 3/4 of the way into each muffin cup.
- Bake at 350 degress for about 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
- Frosting: Mix 1 1/2 Tbsp milk with 1 cup powdered sugar and 1 Tbsp vanilla. Mix well then drizzle over cooled muffins.
In the next post, we'll take a look at PUMPKIN PIE! Just in time for Thanksgiving!
