The baking frenzy has begun again. Over the weekend, I made a delicious breakfast item with some pumpkin puree (I will be guest posting on Eloping Stethoscope with that recipe this month!) I had some leftover pumpkin puree that I needed to use so I decided to make some muffins with it. But not your ordinary muffins. I made Butterscotch Pumpkin Muffins with white chocolate chips. I am pretty darn proud of these muffins. They look good, they’re low fat and they taste good! I tell ya, if I keep eating all of these pumpkin treats, I am going to turn into a pumpkin. Yea, I know, lame joke but it made me laugh while I was typing it! I got the base recipe for the muffins from the “Better Homes and Gardens New Cookbook” published in 1996. I got creative and added the pumpkin, butterscotch flavor and white chocolate chips. I hope you enjoy my recipe.
- 1 3/4 C all purpose flour
- 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
- 1/2 C sugar
- 1/2 C and 1 tbsp milk
- 3/4 C pumpkin puree
- 1/2 C white chocolate chips
- 1/4 C applesauce
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 of a 3.4 oz package of butterscotch pudding
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, pumpkin pie spice, salt, baking powder and butterscotch pudding.
- In another mixing bowl, combine the egg, milk, pumpkin puree and applesauce.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until well combined (I hand mixed, I didn’t use an electric mixer)
- Fold in the white chocolate chips
- Place the muffin mix in a pan lined with muffin papers, about 2 tbsp of mix per muffin cup.
- Bake at 400 for 18-20 minutes
- Allow to cool before attempting to remove from the muffin papers. If you don’t the muffins will stick to the papers! Don’t be a muffin waster. Cool before you eat.

Blossom Flavours are one of the leading manufacturers of Butterscotch is similar to caramel in flavor and use, but its formula relies on a combination of ingredients: brown sugar, butter, cream and vanilla. It is creamy, luxurious, complex and elegant. Think butterscotch sauce, butterscotch pudding and cream pie. If I had my say, the triumvirate of ice cream flavors would lose strawberry and instead be vanilla, chocolate and butterscotch.
