Step 1

Preheat oven to 180C. Line a 12-hole, 1/3-cup (80ml) muffin pan with paper cases.

Step 2

Place the combined flour, pumpkin, corn and cheddar in a large bowl and stir to combine. Whisk the egg, oil and buttermilk in a small bowl. Add to the pumpkin mixture and stir until just combined. Spoon the mixture evenly among the lined pans and sprinkle with the pepitas.

Step 3

Bake for 25 mins or until a skewer inserted in the centres comes out clean. Serve the muffins warm or at room temperature.
