Pumpkin Pecan Muffins with Maple Glaze

Muffins:

1 cup sugar

2 1/2 cups flour

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon baking soda

2 Tablespoons baking powder

2 teaspoons cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

2 eggs

1 cup milk

1 (15 oz.) can pure pumpkin

1/3 cup melted coconut oil

1 Tablespoon vanilla

Pecans

Glaze:

2 cups powdered sugar

2 Tablespoons milk

1/2 teaspoon maple flavoring

Instructions:

Whisk dry ingredients together in a medium mixing bowl. Combine wet ingredients in a small mixing bowl. Dump wet ingredients into dry ingredients and mix until just moistened. Put in greased or lined muffin tins. Press a few pecans into the top of each muffin. Place in a preheated 375 degree oven. Bake 15-18 minutes, or until a toothpick can be inserted into a muffin and come out clean. While the muffins are baking, make the glaze. Glaze is made by whisking the three ingredients in a small bowl. When the muffins are cooked, pull them from the oven and drizzle glaze over each one.

This recipe makes 24 muffins.
