Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 36 servings

  • 1 (15 ounce) can 100% pure pumpkin

  • 1 ½ teaspoons ground ginger

  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • ¼ teaspoon ground cloves

  • 1 cup dark brown sugar

  • ½ cup vegetable oil

  • 2 large eggs, lightly beaten

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour

  • 2 teaspoons baking powder

  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda

  • ½ teaspoon salt

Orange Drizzle:

  • ½ cup confectioners' sugar

  • ¼ teaspoon finely grated orange zest

  • 4 teaspoons orange juice

Directions

  1. Adjust oven rack to center position and heat oven to 425 degrees. Spray 36 mini-muffin cups with vegetable cooking spray.

  2. Bring pumpkin, ginger, cinnamon and cloves to a simmer in a medium saucepan until puree thickens enough to start sticking to pan bottom, 6 to 8 minutes. Turn hot puree into a bowl. Whisk in brown sugar and oil, then slowly beat in eggs.

  3. Meanwhile, whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl; whisk into pumpkin mixture until just combined.

  4. Divide batter among the muffin cups and bake until golden and cooked through, about 10 minutes. Let stand a few minutes, then transfer mini-muffins to a wire rack to cool. Mix the drizzle ingredients together and drizzle over warm muffins.
