Spicy Pumpkin Muffins

I made these this afternoon, and they are delicious. Moist and puffy, and they smell amazing. I think they'd also be good with the addition of pecans and raisins.

1 1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1 cup raw sugar
1 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp baking powder
1 tsp ground cloves
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp ground nutmeg
1/2 tsp ground allspice
1/2 tsp salt
1 1/4 cup pumpkin purée
1/3 cup coconut oil
2 eggs

Heat oven to 350 and put liners in muffin pans.
Mix dry ingredients in a large bowl.
In a separate bowl, beat together pumpkin, coconut oil, and eggs.
Stir dry mixture into wet mixture until just blended. Scoop batter into muffin cups.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean.

Yields 1 dozen regular-sized muffins.

EDIT: They are great with pecans and raisins. They also work well with acorn squash instead of pumpkin.
