Pumpkin-Apple Muffins with Streusel Topping
The perfect combination of cozy pumpkin and crisp apple, these muffins are topped with a crunchy streusel that’ll have you singing in the kitchen. It’s like a hug in muffin form!
Ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
- 1 cup shredded apple (about 1 medium apple)
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with liners or grease it up a bit. We don’t want any sticky situations here!
- In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. It’s a dry party, but it’ll get lively soon!
- In another bowl, mix together the pumpkin puree, shredded apple, sugar, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined. This is where the magic begins!
- Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Be mindful not to over mix; we want some fluffy muffins, not heavyweights!
- Divide the batter evenly into the muffin tin. Don’t be stingy, let them rise!
- Now for the streusel topping. In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup of sugar, 1/4 cup of flour, and 1/4 cup of butter (cold and cubed). Mix until crumbly, then sprinkle it over the muffins.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Your kitchen should smell like an autumn dream right about now!
- Let them cool before devouring all at once (you can do it, but maybe pace yourself!).
Voila! Your Pumpkin-Apple Muffins with Streusel Topping are ready to be enjoyed. They make a perfect breakfast treat, an afternoon snack, or even a sweet midnight indulgence. Trust us, one bite, and you’ll be making them on repeat!
