How to make pumpkin muffins:

Sift together dry ingredients. In a large bowl, beat together brown sugar, eggs and butter until light and frothy. Blend in pumpkin and buttermilk. Add dry ingredients, nuts and raisins. Stir just enough to moisten flour mixture. Do not overmix. Spoon mixture into greased 2-inch muffin pans. Fill cups three-fourths full. Bake at 375° for 25 to 30 minutes, or until lightly browned. Remove from pan and cool on wire rack.
