Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffins

Happiness can be as simple as some muffins in the morning with a cup of coffee. At least for me haha.. These yummy muffins definitely can :)

 

 

Recipe is from Kenneth Goh from Guai Shu Shu

 

What you need:

 

200g self raising flour

150g pumpkin, steamed and mashed

150g castor sugar

100g cream cheese

80g melted butter

50g fresh milk

3 eggs

1 tsp cinnamon powder

1/2 tsp baking soda

 

Method:

1. Preheat oven to 180degC. Line muffin pan
2. Whisk together mashed pumpkin (still hot) and cream cheese til well mixed. Add in eggs, milk and melted butter. Stir til well combined. Set aside
3. In another bowl, mix in flour, sugar, cinnamon powder and baking soda
4. Make a well in the centre and pour in the wet mixture. Fold in gently til just incorporated. Lumpy batter with some flour streaks here and there is alright. Do not overmix
5. Pour batter into the muffin pan til 3/4 full. Bake for about 20-25mins til skewer comes out clean

 

Delicious yummy muffins
