It is that time of year! The time for apple picking, visiting pumpkin patches, and pumpkin spice lattes is upon us! Fall, in my opinion, is the best time of year.

How to make Pumpkin Pie Cupcakes:

Pumpkin Pie Cupcakes are a really special treat! With my love of everything pumpkin and my love of cupcakes I had to make these. I have been on a cupcake spree lately.

Baking all sorts of cupcakes these are definitely one of my favorites, and I don’t even put frosting on these! Just classic whipped cream from a can. Just how my grandma always topped her pumpkin pies.

How is this like pumpkin pie?

This recipe is a perfect combination of a pumpkin pie and a cupcake. You have all the flavors your expect, and a super moist cake made by the pumpkin puree.

Tips for making a great cupcake:

1. Use room temperature ingredients: Room temperature ingredients will not cause any drastic temperature changes to your batter when mixing.
2. Make sure to use accurate measurements: If you do not measure accurately and use a heaping “cup” of flour you will have too much and your cupcakes will be dense and/or dry. One thing about this recipe is it is very simple to make but does need to be precise. Making a fluffy, moist cupcake is tough for a lot of people (including me), and using accurate measurements definitely helps!
3. Allow to cool before topping with whipped cream: This may sound like a no-brainer, but if these cupcakes that are still even a little warm will melt your whipped cream. Also topping with whipped cream before serving is best.
