How to Make
-
Step 1: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a 12 tin muffin pan with liners.
-
Step 2: In a medium bowl, whisk together flours, sugar baking powder, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice, and salt.
-
Step 3: In a large bowl, combine pumpkin, egg, canola oil, applesauce, buttermilk and vanilla. Mix until smooth.
-
Step 4: Gradually incorporate the dry into the wet ingredients in batches. Be sure NOT to overmix, overmixing results in dry muffins, you should still have a slightly lumpy batter.
-
Step 5: Fill each muffin liner 3/4 of the way full.
-
Step 6: Prepare your streusel. Combine sugars, cinnamon and nutmeg in a small bowl. Add in melted butter and then add flour in batches, working the mixture with your hands until all is incorporated. The end result should be crumbly.
-
Step 7: Sprinkle the streusel evenly over unbaked muffins.
-
Step 8: Bake for 23-25 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean
-
Step 9: Allow muffins to cool completely.
