Welcome To Day 29 Of Baking With Pumpkin!
Are you ready for Halloween? I pretty much am. I have bags of candy all ready to be poured into a bowl for all the trick-or-treaters! We will do a little “late” decorating of inside our home. I am looking forward to handing out candy.
Today was kind of busy and exhausting. Any day I have a meeting to attend, it tires me,lol. The weather was pretty nice and as it has been, perfect for baking.
These muffins, best for any part of the day are great as a breakfast muffin as well. I love the scent of gingerbread and brown sugar, just enough sweetness and moist! A perfect muffin.
Next time I think the only thing I’d do differently is make more of the streusel and put more on top of each muffin, good stuff!
Tomorrow is the last day of baking with pumpkin!! However, I will still be baking with pumpkin as I have a bake sale coming up next week and some items I made over this month have been a real hit and so I will make them just for the sale.
So do you have any plans for Halloween??
