Preparation

Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 400\u00b0.
Butter twelve 3 x 1 1/2 inch muffin cups.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, cloves, salt, nutmeg, and baking soda.
In another large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin, melted butter, eggs, yogurt, maple syrup, and vanilla.
Pour into the flour mixture and mix just until combined; do not overmix.
Fold in the raisins and walnuts.
Using a 1/3-cup food portion scoop or spoon, transfer the batter to the prepared muffin cups.
Bake until a wooden pick comes out clean, 25-30 minutes.
Let the muffins cool in the pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes.
Remove from the pan and cool completely on the rack.
