  1. Hey 1Steve ~~ made these this morning. Having a recipe for just 1/2 c. pumpkin is great, cause I always seem to have a bit left from various recipes. They are great! I added a dash of cloves.. but think next time I will add a bit more cinnamon. I baked them in Madellin pans, and got 15 little pumpkin 'cakes'. I dusted them with icing sugar and they looked decorative and tasted yummy. :)
     
  2. I made 6 batches of these to take to school in France for Thanksgiving. They needed a bit of pumpkin pie spice, a bit more than the recipe, and were a very nice color. They stuck badly to paper muffin cups, I would only use tin cups next time. Good way to use a bit of pumpkin
     
  3. These muffins are wonderful-perfect for that leftover pumpkin in your refrigerator. I replaced half of the flour with whole wheat flour and added 1/4 t. ginger, 1/4t. allspice, and 1/8t. cloves as recommended by another reviewer. This recipe only yielded 9 muffins for me.
     
  4. This was the perfect way to use up the leftover pumpkin in the fridge. Simple to prepare and very tasty. I used dried cranberries, plumped up in a bit of water, instead of raisins and also added 1/2 cup of mini chocolate morsels. Besides the cinnamon and nutmeg I also used 1/4 tsp of ginger, 1/4 tsp of allspice and 1/8 tsp of cloves. I made these in my mini bundt cake muffin pan, as you can see in the photo. DH co-workers are enjoying them today.
