Instructions

For the muffins

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Coat a 12 cup muffin tin with cooking spray, or you can use paper liners.
  2. Place the eggs, sugar, pumpkin puree and oil in a bowl. Whisk until smooth.
  3. Add the flour, baking soda, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla extract and salt to the bowl. Stir until just combined.
  4. Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups.

For the streusel

  1. Place the flour, brown sugar, butter and pumpkin pie spice in a medium sized bowl. Mix until thoroughly combined and coarse crumbs form.
  2. Sprinkle the streusel evenly over the muffins.
  3. Bake for 15 minutes, or until lightly browned and a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean. 
  4. Cool for 5 minutes in the pan, then transfer the muffins to a wire rack to cool completely.

For the glaze

  1. Whisk together the powdered sugar, cream and vanilla extract. Drizzle over the cooled muffins.
  2. Serve, or store the muffins in an airtight container for up to 5 days.

Notes

  • If you don’t have pumpkin pie spice in the house, you can use cinnamon with a pinch of ground ginger, cloves and nutmeg mixed in.
  • You can either use paper muffin liners, or simply spray the muffin tin with cooking spray before pouring in the batter.
  • The batter and streusel can be made in advance and refrigerated for up to one day before use. Store the batter and streusel separately until you’re ready to combine everything to bake.
