Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the tin generously with non-stick spray.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients including flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and salt.
  • In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients: pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, brown sugar, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined.
  • In a small bowl, combine the streusel topping ingredients, mixing with fingers or a pastry blender until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  • Divide the muffin batter evenly among the 12 prepared muffin cups, filling about 2/3 full.
  • Generously sprinkle the streusel topping over each muffin.
  • Bake for 18-22 minutes or until a skewer inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • Let the muffins cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
