Muffins:

1½ cups canned pumpkin purée

2 large eggs

½ cup vegetable oil

⅔ cup brown sugar

1½ cups all-purpose flour

1 tsp baking soda

1 tsp baking powder

1 tsp ground cinnamon

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners.

In a large bowl, whisk pumpkin, eggs, oil, and brown sugar until smooth.

In another bowl, combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, spices, and salt.

Mix dry ingredients into wet until just combined.

Divide batter into muffin cups, filling about ¾ full.

For the streusel, combine sugar, flour, and cinnamon. Cut in cold butter until crumbly. Sprinkle over each muffin.

Bake 18–22 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool slightly.

For cinnamon honey butter, mix softened butter with honey and cinnamon until fluffy.
