List of Ingredients
1 1/2 cup unbleached flour
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1 tbsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
2 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. ground ginger
1/4 tsp. ground cloves
1/2 tsp freshly grated nutmeg
1 large egg
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1 cup fresh or canned pumpkin puree (see note)
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup milk
3/4 cup raisins
1/2 cup finely chopped walnuts
Recipe
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Butter the insides and top of a regular-sized (1/3-cup) muffin pan.
In a large bowl, thoroughly combine the first 8 ingredients.
In a medium bowl, beat the egg. Beat in the brown sugar, then stir in the pumpkin, oil and milk until well mixed.
Mix the pumpkin mixture into the dry ingredients until just combined. Don't over mix. Stir in the raisins and all but 2 tablespoons of the walnuts. Spoon the batter into muffin cups, then sprinkle with remaining walnuts on top of the muffins.
Bake 15-17 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean. Let set for 5 minutes before removing from pan.
