- 100 g Brown sugar

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 180C/350F and grease a 12 hole muffin tin with butter.
- Mix the sourdough starter, pumpkin puree, 2 eggs, vanilla extract, butter and oil in a bowl. Whisk together until well combined. It's ok if the oil sits on the top, it will combine once it is poured into the dry ingredients.
- In a separate bowl mix together all purpose flour, salt, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg and brown sugar.
- Now pour the liquid ingredient mixture into the dry ingredients. Gently fold together until just mixed - don't over mix or the muffins will be tough.
- Spoon mixture into greased muffin tin. This recipe will fill a 12 hole muffin (each hole around ¾ full).
- Bake at 180C/350F for approximately 20 minutes or until muffins are golden brown.
- While the muffins are baking, add the powdered sugar, cinnamon and juice of an orange into a bowl and stir together to form the glaze.
- Once the muffins are done, take out of the oven and spoon over the glaze while the muffins are still warm.
- Cool muffins on a wire rack.
