This was a new pumpkin recipe to me — but it had me at pumpkin and cream cheese frosting.  Mmmm.  I love cupcakes too.  Why?  Well, they’re perfectly portioned pieces of cake.  Hee-hee.

Pumpkin Spice Cupcakes

Servings: 24
Author: Live Laugh Rowe
Prevent your screen from going to sleep

Ingredients

Cupcakes

  • 3 ¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 ½ tsp ground cloves
  • 1 tsp ground allspice
  • 1 tsp ground nutmeg
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 2 ¾ cups granulated sugar
  • 1 cup vegetable oil plus more as needed
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 15 oz can pumpkin puree (not pie filling)

Frosting

  • 4 cups powdered sugar sifted
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp ground nutmeg
  • 12 ounces cream cheese at room temperature
  • 8 tablespoons unsalted butter 1 stick
  • 1/3 cup pumpkin puree not pie filling

Instructions

Cupcakes

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Line muffin pans with liners.
  • Place flour, baking powder, cinnamon, cloves, allspice, nutmeg, baking soda and salt in a large bowl and whisk to break up any lumps; set aside
  • Place the sugar and measured oil in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on medium speed until the sugar in incorporated, about 1 minute. Stop the mixer and scrape down the sides of the bowl.
  • Return the mixer to medium speed and add the eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition, about 1 ½ minutes total mixing time. Reduce the speed to medium low, add the pumpkin, and beat until just combined, about 30 seconds. Stop the mixer and scrape down the sides.
  • Turn the mixer to low speed, slowly add the flour mixture, and beat until almost completely incorporated, about 1 minute. Remove the bowl from the mixer and fold in any unincorporated flour at the edges with a spatula.
  • Fill the muffin wells ¾ full. Bake for 20 minutes or until toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Frosting

  • Place the powdered sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg in a medium bowl and whisk to combine
  • Place the cream cheese and butter in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment and beat on medium speed until fully combined and smooth, about 1 minute
  • Reduce speed to low, slowly add the powdered sugar mixture and beat until fully incorporated and smooth, about 3 minutes. Stop the mixer and scrape down the sides of the bowl
  • Turn the mixer to medium speed, add the pumpkin, and mix until fully incorporated and smooth, about 1 minute. Use immediately.

Notes

Optional: Sprinkle with Nutmeg.
For the frosting, the 4B tip by Wilton was used.
