Ingredients

nonstick cooking spray
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
1 cup pumpkin puree
3/4 cup white sugar
3/4 cup vegetable oil
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons half-and-half
1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray 15 standard-sized muffin cups with nonstick spray.
2 Combine flour, cinnamon, baking soda, ginger, nutmeg, allspice, baking powder, salt, and pumpkin pie spice in a bowl.
3 Beat pumpkin puree, sugar, oil, eggs, and vanilla in a large bowl until well combined. Slowly mix in dry ingredients until well blended and smooth. Distribute the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups.
4 Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the centers comes out clean, 15 to 18 minutes. Cool in the tin for 5 to 7 minutes.
5 While the muffins are cooling, blend powdered sugar, half-and-half, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla, and cinnamon for glaze until well combined.
6 Remove muffins from the tin and dip the tops into the glaze. Set on a wire rack until glaze sets, about 30 minutes.
