Pumpkin Muffins

These are really yummy muffins.

Ingredients:
1/2 cup raisins
1-1/2 cups and 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1-1/3 cups white sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
2 eggs
1/3 (29 ounce) can pumpkin
1/3 cup unsweetened applesauce
1/3 cup chopped walnuts

Directions:
You have scaled this recipe’s ingredients to yield a new amount (12). The directions below still refer to the original recipe yield (36).
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 C). Grease three 12 cup muffin pans, or line with paper muffin liners. Soak raisins in hot water for ten minutes to plump, then drain.
2. In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, nutmeg, cinnamon, and ground cloves. In a separate bowl, mix the eggs, pumpkin, and applesauce, until smooth. Add this mixture to the dry ingredients and stir thoroughly to make a smooth batter. Stir the raisins and walnuts into the batter. Spoon batter into the prepared muffin cups.
3. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes in the preheated oven, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
