10 tablespoons (1 1/4 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature, plus more for pan 3 cups all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled), plus more for pan 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder 1/4 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon coarse salt 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice 1/3 cup buttermilk 1 1/4 cups pure pumpkin puree (from a 15-ounce can) 3/4 cup light brown sugar 2 large eggs
For the sugar coating
3/4 cup granulated sugar 2 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, melted
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter and flour 12 standard muffin cups. Make batter: In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, nutmeg, and allspice. In a small bowl, whisk together buttermilk and pumpkin puree. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
