Description
Delicious and moist Apple Pumpkin Streusel Muffins, perfect for fall baking.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
- 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- For the streusel topping:
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1/3 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease with cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
- In another bowl, mix the pumpkin puree, applesauce, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
- In a separate small bowl, combine the rolled oats, brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon for the streusel topping. Stir in the melted butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Scoop the muffin batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about two-thirds full. Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over each muffin.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- This recipe makes 12 muffins.
- For added flavor, consider mixing in 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts or pecans into the batter.
- You can also substitute the applesauce with mashed bananas for a different taste.
- Enjoy your muffins warm with a pat of butter!
