Apple Pumpkin Gingerbread Muffins Recipes

PUMPKIN GINGERBREAD MUFFINS

Steps:

• Place a rack in the center of your oven and preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly coat a standard 12-cup muffin pan with nonstick spray.
• In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, white whole wheat flour, baking soda, salt, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. In a separate, larger mixing bowl, stir together the pumpkin puree, maple syrup, molasses, melted butter, and eggs until well blended.
• Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, then by hand with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon, stir very gently to combine; stop as soon as the flour disappears. The batter will seem loose and a little lumpy.
• Divide the batter among the muffin cups, filling them no more than 3/4 of the way to the top. Sprinkle the tops of each muffin with 1/2 teaspoon sparkling sugar.
• Bake the muffins for 20 to 22 minutes, until the tops spring back lightly when touched and a tester inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean. Place the muffin pan on a wire rack and let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Carefully remove the muffins from the pan and transfer to the rack to cool completely. These taste even better as they rest. Enjoy!

PUMPKIN APPLE MUFFINS

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 350 F and spray muffin pan with non-stick cooking spray.
• 2. In a medium bowl, combine all the dry ingredients including sugars.
• 3. In a larger bowl, whisk eggs, pumpkin, oil and vanilla extract.
• 4. Slowly blend the dry ingredients into the wet, mixing until incorporated.
• 5. Fold in apples.
• 6. To make the topping, combine ingredients and mix until butter is pea size.
• 7. Fill greased muffin tins about 7/8 full--almost to the top, and sprinkle with the topping if desired.
• 8. Bake for about 20-24 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the muffins comes out clean.
• 9. Let cool for a few minutes. Remove muffins from pan and enjoy warm or cold!

APPLE PUMPKIN MUFFINS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the first seven ingredients. In a small bowl, combine eggs, pumpkin and oil; stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Fold in apples. Fill greased or paper-lined muffin cups two-thirds full. Bake at 350° for 30-35 minutes or until muffins test done. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan.

TRIPLE-GINGER MUFFINS

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 375 degrees and line a standard muffin tin with paper liners.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine the sugar, butter, eggs, milk, molasses and grated ginger, and whisk until smooth.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, ground ginger and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined. (Be careful not to overmix! The batter will be slightly lumpy.) Stir in 3/4 cup crystallized ginger, reserving the remaining 3 tablespoons for the topping.
• Using an ice cream scoop or a large spoon, divide the batter between the 12 muffin cups. Sprinkle the reserved crystallized ginger onto the tops of the muffins, and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean and the muffins spring back when lightly pressed. Cool for 10 minutes in the pan, then carefully transfer muffins to a cooling rack and cool completely.

• In a 9-by-13-inch baking dish, combine the pumpkin, apples, lemon zest and juice, sugar, cinnamon, and remaining 2 tablespoons flour; toss until mixed. Sprinkle the oat crumble over the apple mixture and bake until the topping is browned and juices are bubbling, about 45 minutes. Let stand for 15 minutes. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream.
