The Ingredients:


  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp., plus 1 tsp. pumpkin pie spice
  • 2 tsp. baking soda
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 3 cup sugar
  • 1 15 oz. can pumpkin puree
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • ¾ cup orange juice

Preheat oven to 350°. Line the muffin pans with liners or spray them with baking spray. Sift together the flour, spice, baking soda and salt. In a large bowl, combine the sugar, pumpkin and eggs, and whisk until smooth. Whisk in the oil and the orange juice until the batter is smooth. Add the flour-spice mix to the pumpkin mixture and fold together until well incorporated, but do not overmix. Bake 20–25 minutes. Frost with cream cheese frosting.


Creme Cheese Frosting


  • 4 oz. unsalted butter at room temperature
  • 8 oz. Philadelphia cream cheese at room temperature
  • 1 tbsp. pure Madagascar bourbon vanilla (we use and recommend Nielsen-Massey)
  • 5 cups sifted confectioners' sugar

Cream the butter and cream cheese together until light and fluffy. Add the vanilla and beat. Add 1 cup of sifted powdered sugar at a time and continue to beat frosting for about 5 minutes.
