    scratch - Pumpkin Cupcakes #1

    3 cups flour
    1 teaspoon baking soda
    1 teaspoon baking powder
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    2 teaspoons cinnamon
    1/4 teaspoon allspice
    1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
    2 cups sugar
    1 cup vegetable oil
    3 eggs
    2 teaspoons vanilla
    4 cups shredded fresh pumpkin
    ...(2 cups solid pack canned)
    4 ounces white chocolate, chopped

    1. Cut open a pumpkin, take out the seeds and inner flesh, then chop into manageable chunks. Grate the pumpkin chunks, skin and all, with a box grated or food processor until you have four cups of grated flesh.
    2. Measure the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, allspice, and nutmeg into a medium sized bowl and whisk to combine.
    3. Measure the sugar, oil, eggs, and vanilla into a large size bowl and stir to combine.
    4. Add about a fourth of the dry mixture to the wet and stir to combine. Continue adding in fourths until all the dry is incorporated. The result with be a very thick batter (and a sore arm).
    5. Fold in the pumpkin and chocolate chunks into the batter and scoop into cupcake papers about 2/3s full.
    6. Bake at 350 degrees for about 25-30 minutes or until a cake tester comes out clean.
    Let cool then frost as desired.
    Makes 24 regular cupcakes.
