Ingredients

• 1 cup Rolled oats
• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoons Ground nutmeg
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 1 cup Pumpkin puree
• 0.5 cup Brown sugar
• 0.25 cup Vegetable oil
• 0.25 cup Milk
• 1 Large egg
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease with cooking spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Stir until evenly mixed.

Step 3

In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, brown sugar, vegetable oil, milk, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and fold gently with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it's okay if a few lumps remain.

Step 5

Using a spoon or ice cream scoop, divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Step 7

Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 8

Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the fridge for up to a week.
