Jumbo Pumpkin Spice Muffins with Streusel Topping
Equipment
Ingredients
- 2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt

- 1 cup canned pumpkin
- 1/2 cup buttermilk
- 1/4 cup canola oil

- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup cold butter cubed
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Grease a jumbo 6 cup muffin pan and set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, brown sugar, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, combine the eggs, pumpkin, buttermilk, oil, and vanilla. Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Do not overmix. Spoon batter into prepared muffin cups filling to 2/3 full.
- In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, pecans, and flour. Using a pastry cutter, cut in butter until crumbly. Sprinkle evenly over batter. Gently press topping into the batter so it sticks.
