In medium bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg. Set aside.
Using an electric mixer, beat butter until light. Beat in honey, egg and pumpkin. Gradually add flour mixture, mixing until just blended.
Spoon into greased or paper-lined muffin tin. Sprinkle on nuts if desired. (If you are going to add icing, sprinkle on nuts after). Bake at 350°F for 15 to 17 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
Remove muffins from pan to wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Cream Cheese Icing
Add the butter and cream cheese to a large bowl and use an electric mixer to mix on low speed until smooth.
Slowly add the sugar and mix on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes. Add vanilla and mix for another minute.
Wait until muffins have completely cooled before adding the icing or it will melt. Once muffins have cooled, used a rubber spatula to add icing.
Notes
Icing can be stored in an airtight container for up to one week.
