Description

Enjoy these simple and delicious pumpkin muffins topped with a sweet streusel. Perfect for fall baking.


Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 0.25 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 0.5 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • For the Streusel Topping:
  • 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
  • 0.25 cup packed brown sugar
  • 0.25 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 0.25 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces


Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease it well.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, melted butter, and eggs until well combined.
  4. Stir in the pumpkin puree, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  5. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Prepare the streusel topping: In a small bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  7. Spoon the muffin batter evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  8. Sprinkle the streusel topping generously over the batter in each muffin cup.
  9. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  10. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Ensure you use pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling.
  • For a richer flavor, you can add 0.5 cup of chopped pecans or walnuts to the streusel topping.
  • These muffins are best enjoyed fresh, but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
