Ingredients
- 1/3 cup raisins
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour (for tossing raisins)
- 1/3 cup butter or margarine, softened
- 3/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
- 1 cup canned pumpkin
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 cup molasses
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- 2 cups sifted all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
- Flavor Expedition Co.’s Peanut Butter Spiced Apple seasoning (for topping)
Instructions
-
Raisin Prep Party: Toss raisins with 1 tablespoon flour so they don’t sink to the muffin abyss. Set aside.
-
Cream Dream: In a large bowl, cream butter until smooth. Gradually add brown sugar and beat until fluffy.
-
Pumpkin Magic: Beat in pumpkin, milk, molasses, and eggs until combined. (It’ll smell like fall just walked into your kitchen.)
-
Dry Mix Mojo: In another bowl, sift flour, baking powder, salt, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves together. Slowly add this to your pumpkin mixture, stirring just until combined.
-
Mix & Fold: Fold in your flour-coated raisins. Don’t overmix, unless you like sad, dense muffins.
-
Pan It Up: Spoon batter into greased or lined muffin pans, filling almost to the top.
-
Bake: Slide them into a preheated oven at 375°F for 20 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
-
The Grand Finale: Let muffins cool slightly, then sprinkle generously with Peanut Butter Spiced Apple seasoning. Bask in the applause of your taste buds.
Pumpkin spice may be the cliché of fall, but these Old Salem Pumpkin Muffins are rewriting the seasonal flavor story. With the nutty-sweet magic of Peanut Butter Spiced Apple, they’re cozy, crave-worthy, and absolutely unforgettable.
Pro Tip
- Swap raisins for chopped dates, dried cranberries, or even mini chocolate chips if you’re feeling rebellious.
- These muffins freeze beautifully—just hold off on adding the Peanut Butter Spiced Apple topping until after thawing.
- Want extra crunch? Sprinkle a little turbinado sugar on top before baking, then finish with the seasoning for a double-layer topping.
