Why Are My Muffin Bottoms Greasy?
If you use paper liner, then chances are you have experienced muffins or cupcakes with greasy bottoms. The reason for this is that the moisture and oil in the wet batter is absorbed by the paper liner. The best solution to avoid greasy or oily bottoms is to sprinkle 1 tsp dry rice to the bottom of each well of the muffin pan under the liner, then put the batter into the liner. Ultimately, this will solve the problem of a greasy or oily bottom. While I call this tip my “Rice Trick”, you can watch me use it here while I am making Blueberry Spice Muffins.

How Do I Get My Muffins To Rise Higher?
To get muffins to rise higher, bake them at 400 degrees F. This higher baking temperature activates the baking powder (a leavening agent) to act faster. Also, make sure your baking powder is less than 6 months old to get the full rising affect.

Ingredients For The Best Pumpkin Spice Muffin Recipe:
For the muffins, you can make this recipe without the filling, it is amazing all on it’s own, but if you are looking to level up this recipe, try it with the ream cheese filling!
- Mill 2/3 cups soft white wheat & 2/3 cup spelt to make a total of 2&1/4 cup flour (250g total)
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 TBSP Pumpkin Spice
- 1 egg
- 1 cup plain yogurt (240g) could also use buttermilk, kefir, or whey instead.
- 1/2 can plain pumpkin (120g)
- 3/4 cup brown sugar (140g)
- 1/2 cup olive oil (65g)
- 1 tsp vanilla (I love to use my homemade vanilla here)
Ingredients for the filling:
- 1/2 cup softened butter
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar (50g)
- 8 oz softened cream cheese (I like to use my homemade cream cheese here)
- 2 tsp vanilla
Instructions For Making The Best Pumpkin Spice Muffin Recipe:
You can use any combination of whole grains that you like, I love to use half spelt and half soft white or Einkorn in my muffins.
- Firstly, Preheat oven to 400 degrees F
- Then, Mill 2/3 cups soft white wheat & 2/3 cup spelt to make a total of 2&1/4 cup flour (280g total)
- Add baking soda, baking powder, salt, and pumpkin spice into the flour, stir to combine.
- Then, add egg, yogurt, sugar, pumpkin, oil, and vanilla. Stir, but don’t overmix.
- I like to use the “rice trick” I mentioned earlier in this post. Put about 1 tsp dry rice in the bottom of each muffin well. Then line each well, and pour in about 1/4 cup of batter in each liner.
- Bake muffins for 20 minutes, let them sit in pan for 10 minutes, then remove them to a wire rack to cool
- (*Optional) Make the Filling by beating softened butter, and slowly adding powdered sugar.
- Add Vanilla, and beat until light and fluffy. Now add the softened cream cheese, and beat until incorporated.
- After the muffins are completely cool, you can use the back of a spoon to push into the bottom of the muffin, but not all the way through. Make a little “tunnel” in the muffin, then using a piping bag, or a plastic bag, fill the “tunnel” with the filling.
