Préparation
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare your muffin tin by lining it with cupcake liners.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  3. In another large bowl, combine the granulated sugar, brown sugar, vegetable oil, eggs, pumpkin puree, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth.
  4. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
  5. Fill each cupcake liner about two-thirds full.
Baking
  1. Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  2. Allow the cupcakes to cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
Frosting
  1. In a bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and unsalted butter until creamy. Gradually mix in the brown sugar and vanilla extract until fluffy.
  2. Once the cupcakes are completely cool, frost them using a spatula or piping bag.
