- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spray regular or mini muffin tin with cooking spray or add liners.

- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking soda and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients stirring to combine. Make sure you only mix until combined - over mixing causes and more gummy and dense muffin.
