Preheat oven to 400°F. Spray 12 3” muffin tins with nonstick cooking spray. In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, salt, and pumpkin spice. Fold the walnuts into the sifted flour and set aside. In a medium bowl, beat the eggs and sugar with an electric hand mixer. Add the eggnog, butter, rum extract, and vanilla extract; blend well on low speed. Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients. Pour the eggnog mixture into the center, stirring lightly and swiftly just to mix. Do not over mix. The batter will be slightly lump. Spoon the batter into muffin tins. Bake 20 to 25 minutes.
