- 1 tsp baking soda
- 2 1/2 tsp pumpkin spice
- 15 oz pumpkin puree
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil

For the filling
- 4 oz cream cheese
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp flour
- 1 tsp milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
For the muffins
- In a mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking soda, and pumpkin spice – the essence of our pumpkin muffins. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees.
- In another bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract, infusing that delightful fall flavor
- Gently fold the dry mixture into the wet ingredients, avoiding overmixing for tender muffins. Fill lined muffin cups about two-thirds full of the batter, ready for the cream cheese surprise.
For the cream cheese filling
- Combine the room temperature cream cheese, granulated sugar, flour, milk, and vanilla extract – elevating every bite.
- Transfer the cream cheese filling into a piping bag or a snipped corner of a Ziplock bag for precision. Pipe a dollop of this delightful mixture into the center of each muffin, creating that creamy, gooey surprise.
- Preheat your oven to 175°C and bake the muffins for 20-25 minutes until a toothpick emerges clean. The aroma of pumpkin and spice will fill your kitchen.
- Allow the muffins to cool briefly in the pan before transferring them to a wire rack. This ensures the cream cheese filling sets beautifully. Enjoy!
