Step 1

Preheat the oven to 180C, fan oven 160C, Gas Mark 4. Line a 12-hole muffin tin with paper cases and set to one side.

Step 2

Pour the oil into a large bowl, add the sugar, eggs, pumpkin, orange zest and mixed spice. Beat well and then sift over the flour and bicarbonate of soda.

Step 3

Combine well and carefully spoon into the prepared cake cases. Bake for 25 minutes, or until a fine skewer inserted comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 4

Meanwhile, to make the salted caramel sauce, place the soft brown sugar, butter and cream into a small pan. Heat until melted then bubble for two minutes until smooth and glossy and then stir in the sea salt. Allow to cool a little.

Step 5

To decorate the muffins, beat together the cream cheese and icing sugar until smooth. Spoon over the cooled cakes and finish with a drizzle of caramel sauce.

🍪 One cookie to rule them all…
During the visit to Comptoir, we came across a giant cookie that stopped us in our tracks. Think golden edges, gooey centre, and serious snack envy.
