I recently made these muffins for a neighborhood party and got a few requests for the recipe, so I thought I'd post it here. It's actually my banana bread recipe that I changed up and made into muffin form.
Pumpkin Spice Apple Muffins with Maple Glaze
1 3/4 cup flour
1 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/3 cup shortening
2/3 cup sugar
2 eggs, slightly beaten
1 cup canned pumpkin
1 small baking apple, finely chopped
For glaze:
1 cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1 tablespoon milk
Preheat oven to 350. In a large bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and spices. Set aside.
In another large bowl, cream shortening and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time until incorporated. Add flour mixture alternating with pumpkin. Do not over beat. Gently fold in apple pieces. Using an ice cream scoop, scoop into lined muffin pan.
Bake 15 to 17 minutes, or until toothpick in center comes out clean. Cool completely.
To make glaze, mix ingredients in small bowl. Pipe or drizzle over cooled muffins.
