My daughter is allergic to chocolate so I make these every year for her birthday at school. Every year there is not one cupcake left. I am always asked for this recipe. It is not only simple but so moist you will have lots of people asking you to bring these the next time you are asked to bring the dessert.

I am always surprised at how many people tell me they have never had a pumpkin cupcake.

Great with icing or just dusted with powdered sugar. You can also make these in a jelly roll pan and cut them into bars. Either way, they are wonderful!

Great for extra fiber in your diet.

This made from scratch pumpkin cupcake recipe is moist, fluffy and melts in your mouth. It has all of the comforting fall spices you'd expect. I love cupcakes for large gatherings because they're easy. I think this recipe would be great for a fall party, tailgate or even at Thanksgiving. The cream cheese frosting is a great complement to all the flavors in the cake. Robin's tip of spraying the cupcake liners worked beautifully! Test Kitchen Avatar The Test Kitchen
