TWD: Pumpkin Muffins

I thought they were a little plain, but all the rest of the folks loved them.
For the recipe, visit Kelly - but I made a few mods. I thought mini muffins would be cute and would go over well at the office. The recipe made almost four dozen minis (12 minute baking time).
I ran out of all purpose flour (who forgets to check the flour?) so I ended up using a cup of wheat flour. I forgot the sunflower seeds on the second batch, but I'm not sure they added much to the mini muffins. And, I couldn't find the allspice in the spice cabinet (sheesh, it was just one of those days).
After I taste tested a few, it seemed like they needed a little pizzaz so I whipped up a maple syrup glaze to drizzle on the top. Hubs and the taste testers thought the glaze gave them the kick they needed.
All in all, this is a keeper. I'll have to try them normal size with all the right flour and spices to see how they turn out.

Mmm... glaze. I made minis too, although I ended up with 5 dozen, not just four dozen. I bet they were perfect office snacks.
i have to agree; they were good and all, but not amazing. but i love the glaze idea!
i'm kicking myself for not thinking of a glaze...yours look super yummy!
Mmmm... lovely picture! So clear, one could almost like the glaze off! LOL
Great job on the minis...
I added chocolate chips and chocolate drizzle and agree they needed it. I skipped the sunflower seeds and the nuts. Love your idea about the glaze, they look gorgeous!
oooOOOoooooo a glaze.
I was thinking by looking at your picture that you had put cinnamon on your glaze.
I thought they were a bit bland.
i agree with your opinion of these... ok, just a little plain. your glaze looks like a great touch, though!
I've certainly had my share of days like yours! But your muffins turned out great.
that drizzle looks perfect!
These look wonderful! I love the glaze :)
The maple syrup sounds like a great addition! Great job!
I love the glaze! Sounds like a delicious addition to the muffins. :)
I like the glaze! I agree they weren't very pumpkiny.
