Walnut Raisin Pumpkin Spice Muffins

These pumpkin spice muffins are flavoured with cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and ginger, and are studded with raisins and walnut pieces. The craggy tops hide a soft and flavourful crumb which tastes just like Thanksgiving. Serve these with a cup of cold milk or a mug of tea on a blustery fall day.

Walnut Raisin Pumpkin Spice Muffins

Ryan made a delicious pumpkin pie for my family’s Thanksgiving dinner, but the pie recipe only used 2 cups of canned pumpkin pie, leaving 1 1/3 cups left in the can. We obviously didn’t want to throw it away, so we made these delicious walnut raisin pumpkin spice muffins!
