my mom has made these muffins my whole life.
they have always been a favorite.
and my kids love them as much as i did.
the last time that pumpkin disappeared from the grocery store....i had some anxiety.
so when it came back....i bought 12 cans.
(do you even know what i am talking about?? our stores here in town had NO pumpkin for a long time... yikes)
i didn't ever want to run out.
the recipe is simple enough.
and i have to say...it IS better than the quick bread pumpkin mix you can buy next to the cake mixes.
but i buy those too.
it's all about how much time and energy you have for the day isn't it?
i use the big scoop from pampered chef for my muffins....do you?
it's the only thing i use it for.
do you have one?
what do you use it for in your kitchen?
for me....it's called a muffin scoop.
bake them for 20-25 minutes and cool.
then i make some glaze.
my mom always made the glaze really thin so that it was pretty much opaque.
like this....
but i make it thicker like a runny frosting instead.
i like to SEE the frosting.
it makes me happy.
it's the same reason i want the pink donut at starbucks...it looks happy.
the recipe is the in the Awesome Recipes rainbow square to the right.
have you clicked through those rainbow square categories?
i clicked through the 365 one last night and boo hoo...my kids are so much bigger already!
it was 365 from 2009.
enjoy the pumpkin muffins!
your house is about to smell amaaaaa-zing.
(imagine me saying that out loud...like Oprah...amAAAAAA-zing!)
