This is one of the best pumpkin muffin recipes ever! TNT many times. I got
it from the November, 1983 issue of Home Cooking magazine. Believe it or
not, a subscription was only $4.00 a year then! Boy, have things changed.

Mix dry ingredients well. Cream shortening and sugar until smooth, then
beat in eggs. Add dry ingredients to sugar mixture alternating with pumpkin
mixture. Add nuts. Stir only until smooth. Do not beat. Bake at 350* for
20-25 min. Yield 20

Topping if you want: (I always do!)

Mix 4T sugar with 1t. connamon. Sprinkle over top of muffins just before
baking.
