Spiced Pumpkin Cupcakes

Use up the innards of your jack-o-lanterns. Eat them as they are all warmly spiced, here with my simple maple glaze or use them as a base for more cheeky halloween inspired decoration. For between 12-15 cupcakes you'll need:

• 115g Pumpkin Puree (Roast pumpkin slices with a pinch of salt until soft, then puree through a sieve. OR use tinned puree - available in the UK at Waitrose and Tesco.)
• 290g Plain Flour
• 1.5 tsp Bicarbonate of Soda
• 0.75 tsp Salt
• 300g Caster Sugar
• 3 Eggs
• 165g Butter
• 2 tsp Vanilla Essence
• 1.5 tsp Ground Cinnamon
• 0.5 Ground Ginger
• 1.5 tsp Ground Allspice
