Ingredients

Instructions 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt.
  • In a large bowl, mix the pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, brown sugar, vegetable oil, eggs, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until well combined.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
  • In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
  • Scoop a tablespoon of the muffin batter into each muffin cup, then add a small dollop of the cream cheese mixture on top. Cover with another tablespoon of muffin batter to seal the cream cheese inside.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
