Ingredients
1 cup pumpkin purée
2 large eggs
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
3/4 cup white chocolate chips
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with liners or grease lightly.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together pumpkin purée, oil, eggs, sugars, and vanilla until smooth.
3. In a separate bowl, sift together flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
4. Gradually stir the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined—do not overmix.
5. Fold in white chocolate chips evenly throughout the batter.
6. Scoop the batter into muffin cups, filling about 3/4 full. Add extra chips on top if desired.
7. Bake for 18–22 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
8. Cool muffins in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a rack to cool completely.
Notes
Let the muffin batter rest for 5–10 minutes before baking to improve texture.
Always use pumpkin purée, not pumpkin pie mix.
Sprinkle extra white chocolate chips on top before baking for a bakery-style finish.
