Step 1

Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a muffin tin with cupcake papers (24 cavities) and set aside.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg. In a separate medium bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs until thoroughly combined. Add the pumpkin and combine. Stir in the dry ingredients alternately with the milk, blending until the mixture is smooth after each addition.

Step 3

Divide the batter between the prepared muffin cups, filling about two-thirds full. Bake for 23-25 minutes or until a wooden toothpick inserted near the center of one of the cupcakes tests clean. Remove cupcakes to a wire rack to cool completely.
