Ingredients
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup canned pumpkin puree
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 large eggs
1/4 cup milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp baking soda
2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup all-purpose flour (for topping)
1/3 cup brown sugar, packed (for topping)
1 tsp cinnamon (for topping)
3 tbsp unsalted butter, cold and cubed (for topping)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line your muffin tin with paper liners.
In a medium bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon for the topping. Cut in the cold butter until it resembles coarse crumbs and set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and pumpkin pie spice.
In a separate bowl, mix the pumpkin puree, sugars, oil, eggs, milk, and vanilla until smooth.
Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined; do not overmix.
Divide the batter evenly into the muffin liners.
Sprinkle the streusel topping generously over each muffin, pressing down lightly.
Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Notes
Keep muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 2 months. Be sure not to overmix the batter to maintain a tender texture.
