Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. Can I use fresh pumpkin instead of canned?
Absolutely! Fresh pumpkin can be used as long as it’s pureed and has a similar consistency to canned pumpkin. Be sure to drain any excess liquid if the puree is too watery.
2. How can I make these muffins gluten-free?
Use a gluten-free all-purpose flour blend to replace the regular flour. Check the packaging to ensure it’s a 1:1 substitute for all-purpose flour.
3. Can I make these muffins vegan?
Yes, substitute the eggs with a flax egg (1 tablespoon flaxseed meal mixed with 3 tablespoons water per egg), and use plant-based milk instead of dairy milk. Opt for oil instead of butter for a vegan option.
4. Why did my muffins turn out dense?
Overmixing the batter can lead to dense muffins. Mix just until the ingredients are combined to keep them light and fluffy.
5. What’s the best way to reheat pumpkin muffins?
Reheat them in the oven at 300°F (150°C) for 5-10 minutes or microwave for 10-15 seconds for a warm, fresh taste.
