Instructions
Streusel Topping
- Begin by preheating the oven to 375 degrees F. Spray muffin cups with natural oil spray such as olive, avocado or coconut oil, or if desired, line a 12-cup muffin tin with unbleached paper liners. Set aside.
- Prepare the streusel topping: Mix flour with cinnamon and sugar. Cut in the butter with a fork until blended – it will look a little lumpy. Set aside while preparing dry ingredients.
Dry Ingredients
- Whisk all dry ingredients together in a mixing bowl; set aside while preparing liquid ingredients.
Liquid Ingredients and Baking
- Whisk ghee and brown sugar together until blended, then whisk in egg, pumpkin puree and milk.
- Add the flour mixture, stirring until just combined. Scoop into prepared or lined muffin tins. Sprinkle streusel evenly over the top of each muffin.
- Bake for 18-25 minutes, depending on muffin size, and until done when tested with a toothpick. Cool in pan for 5-10 minutes. Remove and finish cooling on a wire rack.
