Pumpkin Ginger Nut Muffins - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup pumpkin puree
1/3 cup butter, melted
2 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup water
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon allspice
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 cup toasted walnuts or 1 cup pecans, chopped
2 tablespoons candied ginger, well chopped

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350\u00b0F In a medium sized bowl, sift together the flour, salt, sugar, and baking soda.
Mix the pumpkin, melted butter, eggs, 1/4 cup of water, and spices together, then combine with the dry ingredients, until just incorporated. Do not over-mix. Fold in the candied ginger and chopped nuts.
Spoon mixture into a prepared muffin tin. Bake for 25-30 minutes. Check for doneness with a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin. If it comes out clean, it's done. Cool on a rack.
