Baking Powder

1 tsp

Baking Soda

1 cup

Buttermilk

2 large

Egg

Directions:

1

For the streusel topping: Combine the pecans, brown sugar, flour, pepitas, butter and salt

Squeeze into small clumps on a baking sheet and refrigerate until the streusel is chilled and firm, about 30 minutes

3

For the muffins: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F

4

Lightly grease the top of the muffin tray to keep the muffins from sticking

5

Line a 12-cup muffin tin with your favorite liners

6

Combine the all-purpose flour, brown sugar, whole wheat flour, baking powder, ginger, salt, allspice, baking soda and clove in a large bowl

7

Whisk together the pumpkin puree, buttermilk, eggs and butter in a separate small bowl

8

Fold the wet ingredients into the dry until just combined (don't fret if the batter has lumps this means your batter isn't over-mixed)

9

Fill each muffin liner 3/4 of the way full

10

Evenly divide the streusel among the muffins, mounding in the center

11

Bake until the topping is golden and crunchy and a toothpick inserted in the muffins comes out clean, rotating the trays about halfway through, 25 to 28 minutes

Let rest in the hot muffin pan 3 minutes then transfer to a cooling rack
