Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour (or gluten free flour)

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon cinnamon

3/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

1/4 teaspoon salt

2 tbsp melted butter

2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

1/2 cup pumpkin puree

1/3 cup brown sugar, packed

1 large egg

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

Preheat the oven to 425°F (218°C). Line or spray 6 muffin cups.
In a medium bowl, whisk together dry ingredients: flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together wet ingredients: melted butter and evoo, pumpkin puree, brown sugar, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Add the dry ingredients to the bowl with the wet and stir together until a batter forms. Stir until just incorporated; do not overmix.
Spoon the batter equally into the 6 muffin cups.
Bake for 5 minutes at 425°F (218°C), then decrease the oven temperature to 350°F (180°C) WITHOUT opening the oven door, and bake for 12-15 more minutes until domed and set. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean or with just a couple crumbs attached.
