Description

Pumpkin Muffins Recipe


Ingredients

Scale

Crumble Topping:

  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup packed brown sugar
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted

Muffins:

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice blend
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ⅓ cup vegetable oil
  • ½ cup packed brown sugar
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • ¼ cup sour cream
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree

Instructions

Prepare the Crumble:

  1. In a small bowl, mix the flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and cinnamon until fully combined.
  2. Stir in the melted butter until the mixture forms crumbly clusters. Set aside for later.

Make the Muffins:

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a separate large bowl, whisk together the vegetable oil, brown sugar, granulated sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, sour cream, and pumpkin puree until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until everything is just combined—don’t overmix.
  5. Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full.
  6. Generously sprinkle the crumble topping over each muffin, pressing lightly so it sticks.

Bake and Cool:

  1. Place the muffin tray in the preheated oven and bake for 22–25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  2. Let the muffins cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

These Pumpkin Crumble Muffins are soft, fluffy, and topped with a delightful crunchy cinnamon crumble! Perfect for cozy fall mornings or as a sweet snack.
