PUMPKIN PRALINE MUFFINS

Category: Muffins

3 tbsp packed brown sugar
1 tbsp sour cream
1/3 cup broken pecans
2 cups flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
1/8 tsp ground cloves
1 egg, beaten
3/4 cup buttermilk
3/4 cup canned pumpkin
2/3 cup packed brown sugar
1/3 cup butter, melted

Preheat oven to 400. Lightly grease muffin pans. In a large bowl, stir together brown sugar and sour cream. Stir in pecans. Set aside.

In a medium bowl, stir together dry ingredients. Make a well in the center of the dry mixture.

In another bowl, mix together remaining ingredients and add pumpkin mixture into the well in the dry ingredients, and stir just to combine. (Batter will still be lumpy.)

Spoon batter into prepared muffin cups and drop 1 tsp of the pecan mixture on top of each muffin. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Remove to wire rack to cool. Cool for 5 minutes before removing muffins from pan and finish cooling on rack.
