Recipe Added:  3/17/2012
1/3 cup shortening
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1 1/2 cups flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1/2 cup canned pumpkin
Coating:
1 stick of butter, melted
1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
3/4 sup sugar
In a small mixing bowl, beat shortening, brown sugar and egg until smooth. Combine the flour, baking powder, salt and pumpkin pie spice; add to the sugar mixture alternately with pumpkin. Fill greased muffin cups two-thirds full (don’t use muffin liners). Bake at 350° for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pan. Meanwhile, combine cinnamon and remaining sugar in a shallow bowl. Roll the warm puffs in butter, then in cinnamon-sugar. Serve immediately.
