Halloween Muffins

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Grease 24 muffin cups or line with paper cupcake liners. Sift together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, ginger and nutmeg. Stir in salt. In a large bowl, beat together eggs until fluffy. Add pumpkin, apple juice, butter and brown sugar. Add flour mixture and blend until just moistened. Fold in half of pecans. Spoon into prepared muffin cups. Sprinkle remaining pecans over top of batter. Bake 25 minutes until firm to the touch. Cool in pan. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
