I found this easy recipe on the Martha Stewart website and they are absolutely delicious! My son Big Al who does not really like pumpkin ate several of them and raved about how "Yummy" they were!
The recipe makes 12 HUGE muffins or 24 smaller ones.
You will need:
3/4 cup vegetable oil, plus more for pan
1 1/2 cups whole-wheat flour,
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour,
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice (I made my own with 1/2 tsp cinnamon,1/4 tsp ground ginger, 1/8 tsp allspice and 1/8 tsp ground nutmeg)
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2 cups pumpkin puree (I found a place that sells American goodies and I bought a can of Libby's Pumpkin!
1 cup plain low-fat yogurt
3 large eggs
1 cup turbinado/demerara sugar sugar, plus 2 tablespoons more for sprinkling
1 1/2 cups coarsely chopped walnuts
These muffins are so easy to make! Just preheat your oven to 180C/350F degrees. Brush muffin tins (each with oil and set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk flours, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, and baking soda; set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk oil, pumpkin puree, yogurt, eggs, and 1 cup sugar to combine; add 1 cup walnuts and reserved dry ingredients. Mix just until moistened (do not overmix).
Divide evenly and spoon batter into muffin tins; sprinkle tops with remaining walnuts and sugar. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean, 35 to 40 minutes. Cool 5 minutes in pan.

The muffins sound amazing!
(Sounds so funny to hear someone make a deal about finding Libby's, what we take for granted! lol)
Have a great weekend!
I loved my 5 minutes with you and I love these muffins too! I love anything that is pumpkin at this time of year and this looks like a good one..thanks for sharing it! :D
You make baking look so yummy and easy. Love your pictures as you're going along. :O)

I love love love pumpkin pie! Must try these muffins!
The muffins look and sound delicious Natasha! The batter is such a beautiful color. And any recipe by Martha is good by me!
Thank you for the recipe. You must be thinking of your friends in The States.
If you get a chance, please stop by my blog "Substitute Teacher's Saga". I'm having a Halloween Haunting. Win great prizes!
That's funny... I just ran to Walmart this afternoon and bought 5 large cans of that Libby's goodness. I might suggest you try adding some semi-sweet chocolate chips next time. I always make mine that way and it has made me a very popular lady around the holidays! :-)
These muffins look good enough to eat my computer!!!!! I love your instuctions and your great photos!

Oh that looks wonderful and since we are in a cooling trend and I have an extra can of pumpkin, who knows what could happen? What a great way to trick your son into eating some veggies. :D
Are you having troubles uploading pictures? Are you using Old or New Editor?
My troubles are that my posts are not updating on anyone's blogrolls or on Google Reader. It's frustrating to wait for seven hours or more to see a post show up. BUT! I said that I was going to let it go... So hard this letting go.
I made pumpkin muffins for Foodie Friday too :) Yours look delicious!
You look so cute in your WS apron! I have the napkins and placemats to match!

I'm so curious about pumpkin sweets, in Italy we use it only for savory recipes, between I love it.
I'm lazy, but one day I'll try, only I have to puree the pumpkin because we don't have the canned one.

Hi Natasha,
great idea to make pumpkin muffins, thank you for the recipe. I will try to make them. It is so funny that Down under it gets warmer now. So I guess you have warm Christmas time? :-)

A can of pumpkin, now that is something I have never ever seen or even heard of before today!
Thanks for your recent comment on our winemaking over on News From Italy. It is quite exciting waiting for the wine and remember I have developed patience living in Italy!
Natasha, those look very yummy! I think I will give them a try. I just inherited a whole bunch of muffin pans and was thinking of using them soon anyway.
Hey, I mailed your photo out yesterday, so you should be getting it sometime soon.
Have a wonderful weekend!
