Ingredients:

• 1 (15 oz) can pumpkin puree
• 2 large eggs
• ½ cup vegetable oil
• ¼ cup water
• 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
• 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• ¾ teaspoon salt
• ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
• ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
• ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
• ¼ teaspoon ground ginger

Directions:

1. Prepare Your Workspace: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a standard muffin tin with paper liners or grease thoroughly with non-stick spray.
2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, eggs, vegetable oil, water, and sugar until smooth and well combined.
3. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and ginger until evenly distributed.
4. Create the Batter: Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the pumpkin mixture, stirring just until no flour streaks remain. Avoid overmixing to ensure tender muffins.
5. Fill Muffin Cups: Divide the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full for perfect doming.
6. Bake to Perfection: Place in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
