Pumpkin Poppers image

Delicious cinnamon & sugar coated mini muffins. I cannot take credit for this recipe. I found it on another website but that site has since been deleted so I thought I'd post here so there is a link again.

Time 22m

Yield 36-48 mini muffins, 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon allspice
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup pumpkin (fresh or canned, just not pumpkin pie filling)
1/2 cup low-fat milk
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
2/3 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons cinnamon

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 350 and spray your muffin pans.
  • Combine all the dry ingredients in one bowl and whisk till combined.
  • In another bowl, mix together the oil, brown sugar, egg, vanilla, pumpkin and milk.
  • Pour the dry ingredients into the wet and mix till it's just combined (you don't want to over mix).
  • Fill your mini tins till almost full.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes.
  • While they're baking, melt your butter and in a small bowl combine your sugar and cinnamon.
  • Let the poppers cool for a few minutes before rolling them around in the melted butter and then plunging them into their cinnamon sugar bath.
  • If you want less sugary sweetness you could just dip the top of the muffin into the butter & cinnamon sugar.
  • They look and taste like a pumpkin donut hole... delish!
