Tips & Variations:

  • It’s best to use canned pumpkin puree over the homemade recipe because it’s consistent in flavor and texture, making it more foolproof.
  • Use an ice cream scooper to transfer cupcake batter to the baking cup for uniformed cupcakes.
  • Place a dish towel over the bowl of the stand mixer when adding powdered sugar. This prevents a sugar explosion.
