Ingredients

2 eggs
1 cup brown sugar packed
1 cup pumpkin puree
½ cup vegetable oil
¼ cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups all purpose flour
2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt

For the Streusel

½ cup all purpose flour
½ cup brown sugar packed
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
4 tablespoons butter melted

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a muffin pan with paper liners or grease lightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and brown sugar until smooth and slightly fluffy.
Stir in the pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, milk, and vanilla extract until fully combined.
Add the flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture just until no streaks remain—avoid over mixing for soft muffins.
In a separate bowl, mix the streusel ingredients: flour, brown sugar, pumpkin pie spice, and melted butter. Stir with a fork until crumbly.
Divide the muffin batter evenly among the prepared liners, filling each about ¾ full.
Sprinkle the streusel topping generously over each muffin, pressing it lightly into the surface so it bakes into the tops.
Bake for 18–20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling.

Notes

These muffins can be made ahead and stored at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 3 days
Can be frozen for up to 2 months. To freeze, let the muffins cool completely, then wrap individually and store in a freezer-safe bag. Thaw at room temp or reheat gently in the microwave or toaster oven before enjoying.
