Meanwhile, whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl; whisk into pumpkin mixture until just combined.

Use a small scoop to put batter into mini muffin cups. Bake until golden brown and cooked through, about 9 minutes. Let stand a few minutes, then transfer mini muffins to a wire rack to cool. Mix the drizzle ingredients together and drizzle over warm muffins.

    I tried this recipe with a few variations. Didn't put it over the stove. Also, I used less olive oil 1/4 cup and a little less flour. Added some chopped nuts and dried apricot as well. Also made regular sized muffins. Tasted very good and was easy to make, also not many fatty ingredients so healthy. - 4/15/07
