Equipment

  • Mixing bowl
  • Muffin Pan
  • whisk
  • Cookie scoop

Ingredients
  

Cinnamon Streusel

  • ¾ cup all-purpose flour
  • cup brown sugar
  • cup granulated sugar
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted

Cinnamon Swirl

  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

Pumpkin Muffin Batter

  • ¾ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup cake flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground ginger
  • ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
  • 2 large eggs, at room temperature
  • cup vegetable or canola oil
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree

Maple Glaze (optional)

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 teaspoons milk
  • 1 teaspoon maple flavoring

Instructions
 

Cinnamon Streusel

  • In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugars, and cinnamon. Add the melted butter and mix with a fork until the mixture is fully combined and crumbly. Set aside.

Cinnamon Swirl

  • In a small bowl, combine the sugar and cinnamon. Set aside.

Pumpkin Muffin Batter

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a 12-count muffin pan with cupcake liners, or grease each tin lightly with cooking spray. Set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the flours, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and spices. Add the eggs, oil, and pumpkin and gently whisk just until no streaks of flour remain.
  • Scoop half of the muffin batter into the prepared muffin tins using a 2 Tablespoon cookie scoop. Sprinkle each tin of batter with about ½ teaspoon of the cinnamon sugar mixture, then add another 2 Tablespoon size scoop of the batter. The tins should be about ¾ full. Crumble streusel over the top of each muffin and gently press it down into the batter.
  • Bake the muffins for 5 minutes at 425°F. Leave the muffins in the oven and reduce the temperature to 350°F and bake for another 15-17 minutes. The muffins should bake for a total of 20-22 minutes. Allow muffins cool for 10-15 minutes before glazing.

Maple Glaze

  • Whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and maple flavoring until well combined. Once the muffins are slightly cool, drizzle the glaze over the top of each muffin.

Notes

The cake flour makes the muffins super soft and tender. Be sure to adjust the oven temp after 5 minutes.
