Ingredients

For the muffins

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground ginger
  • ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 15 oz. can pumpkin puree
  • 8 tbs unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the streusel topping

  • 2 tbs unsalted butter, room temperature
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoon cinnamon

For the glaze

  • 1 tbs unsalted butter melted
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1-2 tbs milk

Instructions

To make the muffins

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.  Line 18 muffin tins with paper liners, or spray with cooking spray. Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and salt. Set aside.
  • In another medium bowl, combine the sugar, pumpkin puree, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until well-combined.
  • Add the wet ingredients to the dry and stir until everything is combined. Fill the lined muffin tins ~⅔ of the way.

To make the streusel

  • Combine all of the streusel ingredients in a small bowl. Use a fork or your fingertips to mix all of the ingredients together until a crumbly streusel topping forms.
  • Top each of the muffins with ~1 tbs of the streusel topping.  
  • Bake 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick, when inserted into the center of a muffin, comes out clean.
  • Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes before removing them to a wire rack to cool completely.

To make the glaze

  • Combine all of the ingredients for the glaze in a small bowl. Drizzle the glaze over the top of the cooled muffins.
