question on the pumpkin muffins


Posted: Nov 20, 2011

I have a question about the pumpkin muffin recipe posted back in October - when it says to mix until blended, etc., do you mix them by hand or can you use a mixer?  I'm thinking it's probably by hand, but I'm certainly no baking expert!  Thanks!

I actually found it easier to use a mixer and they turned out great. VERY moist...

I mixed them by hand.... Sm - Old Woman

You could probably use a mixer, but I didn't want to drag mine out. You also don't have to use cupcake liners. Just spray muffin tin really well with cooking spray.

Silly question, but - I'm no baker either!

How high do you fill your muffin tins? 1/2 way, 3/4? I think I've made muffins like twice in my life, but I'd like to try these!

I did some of each - half and third

Just had some bigger muffins and some smaller. This recipe is amazing and if you have a good cream cheese frosting recipe, even better!

DELICIOUS!

No such thing as a silly question.....sm - Old Woman

I usually fill about 2/3 full. That way, they don't rise too high and make weird-shaped crowns, but they aren't "skimpy" either.

I mix them by hand with a wire wisk - OP of the recipe

I posted the recipe and I mix them by hand. What I do is I put all the dry ingredients in the bowl and I mix them all first so the spices and flour, baking soda etc gets evenly mixed. Then I add the eggs water and oil and mix that all with a wire wisk until all smooth and no lumps, then I mix the pumpkin in. Just made a batch yesterday. Gets me in the mood for Thanksgiving.

Should have also added - on filling the muffins pan - OP of the recipe

I do what the other posters wrote. I spray my muffin pan with Pam (original Pam and I fill them about 3/4. I have a little gravy ladel I use and it puts the right amount. They are never even, some of them are 1/2, some are 3/4. They still all take 20 minutes to bake whether its 1/2 or 3/4. I would say do 3/4, otherwise you'll have a smaller muffin and will just end up eating more of them - like me - :-) LOL. The recipe makes 2 dozen muffins. They are so incredibly easy and so moist and good. Hope you enjoy them. It looks like other posters do.

QuestionMar 22, 2010
Okay, here is a question that I have not seen come up here.  While watching news today this just crossed my mind.  If the government sets an insurance rate you have to pay based upon what you make per year, do they take into account all your other bills, and that sometimes as ICs we don't get any work coming in at times, and then what they set is more than what you can afford (i.e. more money than your paycheck and you still have to pay all your bills).  As ICs I'm sure ...

Some of their jewelry is signed, and some of those posts say so, but not all their jewelry is signed ...
