Pumpkin Doughnut Muffins

Ingredients
  • 1¼ sticks butter, room temperature, plus more for pan
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled), plus more for pan
  • 2½ teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon coarse salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
  • 1/3 cup buttermilk
  • 1¼ cups pure pumpkin puree (from a 15-ounce can)
  • 3/4 cup light brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, melted

Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Butter and flour 12 standard muffin cups.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, nutmeg, and allspice.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together buttermilk and pumpkin puree.
  5. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs, one at a time, scraping down bowl as needed. With mixer on low, add flour mixture in three additions, alternating with two additions pumpkin mixture, and beat to combine.
