This recipe could not be simpler --- mix together some melted butter, sugar, vanilla extract, eggs, and pumpkin puree (make sure you use pumpkin puree, not pie filling). Then, add flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and a lovely mixture of cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg. Stir it all up and fill your muffin tins, put a ton of that delicious pecan streusel on top and bake!  These muffins are amazing while still warm from the oven! 🤤

Ingredients

For the Batter:

  • ¾ cup salted butter, melted
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 15-ounce can of pure pumpkin puree (not pie filling)
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg

For the Streusel:

  • 3 tablespoons melted butter
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ cup chopped pecans

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350℉ and prepare two 12-count muffin tins with either non-stick spray or cupcake liners.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter and sugar until combined. Add the vanilla, eggs, and pumpkin and whisk well. 
  • In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and spices. Add to the wet ingredients and stir just until incorporated.  
  • Scoop muffin batter evenly into the prepared tins. Top with the pecan streusel (recipe follows) and bake in preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until a tester inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool in muffin tins for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to finish cooling. Enjoy!

Pecan Streusel:

  • In a small bowl, mix together the melted butter, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and chopped pecans until mixture forms a loose crumb texture. 

Love and cookies,

Naomi

    We had these for breakfast this morning and can highly recommend them! The muffins are most and flavourful, and the streusel topping is the perfect finishing touch. It will be a repeat recipe in our house.
