2. Measure Spices Carefully: To get the perfect balance of flavors, measure your ground cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves precisely. Overdoing any of these spices can overpower the muffins.
3. Don’t Overmix: When combining the wet and dry ingredients, mix just until they are combined. Overmixing can make the muffins dense and tough instead of light and fluffy.
4. Check for Doneness: Insert a toothpick into the center of a muffin to check if it’s done. If it comes out clean or with a few crumbs, the muffins are ready. Avoid over-baking as it can make the muffins dry.
With these tips, you’ll be able to bake the perfect batch of Pumpkin Spice Muffins every time. Enjoy their delightful taste and the wonderful aroma that will fill your kitchen!
