- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 1 cup pumpkin puree (canned or fresh)
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease it well.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and ginger.

- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
- Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
- Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For extra moist muffins, ensure you use pumpkin puree and not pumpkin pie filling.
- You can add 1/2 cup of chopped nuts or chocolate chips to the batter for variation.
- These muffins store well in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
