How to Make:

Ingredients

  • Muffin Batter:
    • All purpose flour
    • Granulated sugar
    • Baking powder
    • Baking soda
    • Cinnamon
    • Nutmeg
    • Salt
    • Eggs
    • Oil (I like to use half vegetable oil and half extra virign olive oil)
    • Pumpkin puree
  • Crumb Topping:
    • Granulated sugar
    • All purpose flour
    • Cinnamon
    • Butter (softened)

Directions

  • Muffin batter:
    • Combine the dry ingredients in a large bowl
    • In a smaller bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients
    • Pour wet ingredients in the bowl with the dry ingredients and stir to combine
  • Crumb Topping:
    • Combine dry ingredients in a small bowl
    • Add softened butter
    • Use a fork to mix the butter with the dry ingredients, will take a few minutes to form small crumbs
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees
  • Pour batter evenly into a 12 cup muffin tin (greased or lined with muffin cups), will fill about 3/4 of each cup
  • Top each muffin with the crumb topping, this should fill almost to the top (seems like a lot, but it spreads out when the muffins cook)
  • Place in oven for 24-26 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean
  • ENJOY!
