Directions

For the praline pecan topping:

  1. 1

    Combine all ingredients in a medium size bowl and stir well to coat the pecans.

  2. 2

    Preheat oven to 350ºF (180ºC). Spray 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray.

  3. 3

    Place eggs in a medium-large bowl and whisk well.

  4. 4

    Add pumpkin, whisk together until smooth then add oil, sugars and vanilla and mix well again.

  5. 5

    Sprinkle flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking soda, baking powder and salt evenly over the top of the pumpkin mixture. Mix just until all flour has disappeared.

  6. 6

    Divide batter evenly between the 12 muffins cups. You will fill them almost to the top. Scatter one tablespoon of the praline topping evenly over each batter-filled cup.

  7. 7

    Bake for 18-22 minutes or until nicely domed and a toothpick inserted in comes out clean.

  8. 8

    Cool for 15 minutes, then slide out of the pan and transfer to a cooling rack. When muffins are cool, drizzle with the maple glaze if desired.

For the optional maple glaze:

  1. 1

    Combine powdered sugar, maple syrup and 1 tablespoon milk in a medium size bowl. Stir until smooth. If too thick add a little more milk. Drizzle over muffins.
