    Step 2: fill a muffin pan with your batter and bake in a preheated oven! You can line your muffin tin with paper liners, or use non-stick spray on the pan to ensure these easy muffins come out easily after baking.

    This recipe makes about 12 muffins. Bake time for these easy muffins is about 15 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

    Pro Tip - Use an ice cream scoop for perfectly portioned muffins.

      Just wanted to let you know that the recipe card says 1 can of pumpkin, but the description at the top says 2 cans of pumpkin. Your response to someone else’s question says 1, but it also confused me when I read it. I’m going to try it, thanks for the recipe!
