Cream Cheese Filled Pumpkin Muffins

Ingredients:

  • 4 eggs

  • 2 cups granulated sugar

  • 1 15-oz can pumpkin puree

  • 1 1/4 cup vegetable oil

  • 3 cups all purpose flour

  • 2 tsp ground nutmeg

  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon

  • 1/2 tsp ground cloves

  • 1 Tbsp baking powder

  • 1 8-oz package cream cheese, softened

  • 1 cup powdered sugar

  • brown sugar

Preheat oven to 375 degrees

Beat eggs in a large mixing bowl. Add sugar and pumpkin puree. Mix well. Stir in oil.

In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, spices, and baking powder. Slowly add to pumpkin mixture and stir well.

In a separate bowl, beat cream cheese and powdered sugar.

Place liners in muffin tins. Fill each halfway with pumpkin mixture. Use a small cookie scoop (about 1 tsp) to place cream cheese mixture in the center of each muffin. Top with remaining pumpkin mixture to about 3/4 full. Sprinkle with brown sugar.

Bake at 375 degrees for 20 minutes. The muffins should pull away from the sides slightly and spring back when lightly pressed on top.
