Page 30: Pumpkin Spice Muffins

Somehow, I'm down to just ten recipes in the book and still have three muffin recipes to try.  I find this odd because I love muffins. However, two of them are pumpkin and zucchini and those are both very uninspiring to me.  There is a reason the blueberry version happened early in the process.

Anyway, at some point in the past year I had the foresight to purchase a can of pumpkin puree that was sitting in my pantry. Since it's technically fall now, I thought I might as well give these a shot.

Somehow, the BabyCakes muffins always turn out so moist - a quality that is totally opposite from the cupcakes and was a huge relief to me having just come out of the Red Velvet fiasco.  However, these muffins just didn't have a lot of flavor. They were sweetened with 2/3 cup of agave for the whole recipe, but I think they needed more. If I made these again (and I probably won't...) I would add more sugar and/or some chocolate chips.


I tried to redeem them a little bit by brushing extra agave on the top after they came out of the oven, but it made them only slightly better.

With this recipe done, I am now in the single digits! Just NINE recipes to go before I'm through book one!
