# Method:
01 - Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a mini muffin pan or line with mini paper liners.
02 - In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves until thoroughly mixed.
03 - In a large mixing bowl, whisk granulated sugar, light brown sugar, oil or melted butter, eggs, pumpkin puree, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth and blended.
04 - Add dry ingredient mixture to wet ingredients. Stir gently until just combined; avoid overmixing to maintain tenderness.
05 - Spoon batter into each cup of the prepared mini muffin pan, filling each about three-quarters full.
06 - Bake for 12 to 15 minutes until golden and a toothpick inserted into the center emerges clean.
07 - Allow muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool further.
08 - Mix granulated sugar and ground cinnamon together in a small bowl. Dip each muffin bite in melted butter and roll in the cinnamon sugar mixture to coat evenly.
09 - Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
