The best thing about fall is that these Pumpkin Coffee Cake Muffins have a delicious maple glaze on top. These muffins are warm and tasty for breakfast or a snack because they have pumpkin, warm spices, and a crumbly streusel topping.
Ingredients: 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour. 1/2 cup granulated sugar. 1/4 cup brown sugar, packed. 1 teaspoon baking powder. 1/2 teaspoon baking soda. 1/2 teaspoon salt. 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg. 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves. 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted. 1/2 cup canned pumpkin puree. 1/4 cup sour cream. 1 large egg. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. For Streusel Topping:. 1/4 cup all-purpose flour. 1/4 cup granulated sugar. 1/4 cup rolled oats. 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold and cubed. 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon. For Maple Glaze:. 1/2 cup powdered sugar. 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup. 1-2 tablespoons milk.
Instructions: Preheat your oven to 350F 175C and line a muffin tin with paper liners. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. In a separate bowl, mix together the melted butter, pumpkin puree, sour cream, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix. In a small bowl, prepare the streusel topping by combining the flour, granulated sugar, rolled oats, cold cubed butter, and ground cinnamon. Use a fork or pastry cutter to mix until it resembles coarse crumbs. Fill each muffin cup with a spoonful of the muffin batter. Add a layer of streusel topping, and then top with more muffin batter until each cup is about 2/3 full. Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs. Be careful not to overbake. While the muffins are baking, prepare the maple glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar, pure maple syrup, and milk until smooth. Adjust the consistency by adding more milk if needed. Once the muffins are done, allow them to cool in the muffin tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Drizzle the maple glaze over the cooled muffins, allowing it to set for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your delicious Pumpkin Coffee Cake Muffins with Maple Glaze!
