Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 and 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup canola or vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup packed light or dark brown sugar
  • 1 and 1/2 cups canned pumpkin puree
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour (for crumb topping)
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar (for crumb topping)
  • 1/4 cup packed light or dark brown sugar (for crumb topping)
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice (for crumb topping)
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter (for crumb topping)
  • 1 and 1/2 cups confectioners sugar (for maple icing)
  • 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup (for maple icing)
  • 2 tablespoons milk (for maple icing)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a muffin pan by lining it with paper liners or greasing it lightly.
  2. Whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, and salt until well combined.
  3. Mix together the canola oil, granulated sugar, brown sugar, pumpkin puree, eggs, and milk until smooth.
  4. Fold the wet ingredients into the dry mixture until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
  5. Combine the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and pumpkin pie spice in a small bowl for the crumb topping. Cut in the unsalted butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  6. Divide the muffin batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups and sprinkle the crumb topping over each.
  7. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  8. Let cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Whisk together the confectioners sugar, maple syrup, and milk until smooth. Drizzle over cooled muffins and enjoy!

Notes
