Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners, or lightly grease the cups.
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, brown sugar, vegetable oil, egg, and vanilla extract. Mix well until smooth.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the batter.
Gently fold the chocolate-covered raisins into the batter until they are evenly distributed.
Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about two-thirds full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean or with a few crumbs.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature, and enjoy!
