    • 1/4 cup brown sugar (50 grams)
    • 1/4 cup granulated sugar (50 grams)
    • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
    • 1/4 cup unsalted butter (56 grams), melted

    • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
    • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
    • 1 teaspoon baking powder
    • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
    • 1/4 teaspoon salt
    • 1/3 cup vegetable oil (80 ml)
    • 1/2 cup brown sugar (100 grams), packed
    • 1/4 cup granulated sugar (50 grams)
    • 2 large eggs
    • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
    • 1/4 cup sour cream (60 ml)
    • 1 cup pure pumpkin (240 ml)
  • For the Drizzle:
    • 1/2 cup powdered sugar (55 grams)
    • 1–2 tablespoons cream or milk

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cavity muffin pan with muffin papers.
  2. Make the streusel topping by combining flour, brown sugar, white sugar, and cinnamon in a mixing bowl. Pour in melted butter and mix until resembling damp sand.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together flour, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  4. In a large bowl, whisk together vegetable oil, brown sugar, white sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, sour cream, and pumpkin puree until smooth.
  5. Gradually whisk the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until no lumps remain.
  6. Spoon the batter evenly into the muffin cavities, filling them three-quarters full.
  7. Top each muffin generously with streusel mixture.
  8. Bake for 22–25 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean.
  9. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  10. Whisk powdered sugar and cream together and drizzle over cooled muffins.
