Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffins

Happiness can be as simple as some muffins in the morning with a cup of coffee. At least for me haha.. These yummy muffins definitely can :)


 
 
 
What you need:
 
200g self raising flour
150g pumpkin, steamed and mashed
150g castor sugar
100g cream cheese
80g melted butter
50g fresh milk
3 eggs
1 tsp cinnamon powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
 
Method:
  1. Preheat oven to 180degC. Line muffin pan
  2. Whisk together mashed pumpkin (still hot) and cream cheese til well mixed. Add in eggs, milk and melted butter. Stir til well combined. Set aside
  3. In another bowl, mix in flour, sugar, cinnamon powder and baking soda
  4. Make a well in the centre and pour in the wet mixture. Fold in gently til just incorporated. Lumpy batter with some flour streaks here and there is alright. Do not overmix
  5. Pour batter into the muffin pan til 3/4 full. Bake for about 20-25mins til skewer comes out clean
 
Delicious yummy muffins
 
 
 
Soft, moist, full of pumpkin and cinnamon flavour with a slight hint of the cream cheese. I like! :)
