  • 2 tsp baking soda
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp salt

Instructions

Spiced Pumpkin Muffins

  • Preheat oven to 350° Farhenheit.
  • Put the pumpkin pie filling, sugar, water, and oil into a mixer bowl. Mix on low until combined.
  • Add eggs one at a time, mixing to combine.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, baking powder, nutmeg, and ground cloves.
  • While the mixer is on low, slowly add the dry ingredients. Mix until combined.

Streusel Topping

  • In a small bowl, add the flour, sugars, cinnamon, cloves, and salt. Whisk to combine.
  • Add the cut-up butter. Use a pastry cutter or a fork to break up the cubes of butter and disperse within the sugar mixture.
  • When it resembles wet sand with small clumps it's ready.
    Butter pieces dispersed through the mixture. Should resemble wet sand.

Assembling Spiced Pumpkin Streusel Muffins

  • Spray muffin pans or place liners within. Scoop pumpkin muffin batter, filling to about 2/3 full.
  • Sprinkle about 1 tbsp of the streusel topping on top of each muffin.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin, comes out clean.
  • Let cool in muffin tins for 5-10 minutes before moving to a cooling rack.
  • Serve warm or at room temperature.
