Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium bowl, combine flour, spices, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a separate large mixing bowl, using a hand mixer combine sugar and egg until well mixed. Add in applesauce, pumpkin, and milk and mix.
Add the dry mixture to the pumpkin mixture and mix just until combined. Do not over mix.
Generously grease a 12-well muffin pan with non-cook spray or vegetable oil. Fill wells ¾ of the way with muffin batter.
Bake 15-20 minutes or until the toothpick comes out clean when inserted into the middle.
Cool 10+ minutes before removing from pan.
