I LOVE fall baking, and especially anything pumpkin and spice! I have been making these Pumpkin Streusel Muffins for about 30 years and they are truly the BEST Pumpkin Muffins you will ever have! I got so many requests for the recipe at the Bed and Breakfast when I served them, and they are always gobbled up in no time!

MAKE AHEAD TTP: You can make the dry mix ahead of time and keep it in an airtight container, and the streusel topping can be kept in a ziptop bag in the freezer. I could make them in about 10 minutes prep, and bake them and serve them warm right out of the oven! But they’re just as good room temperature. I often double or triple the recipe when I’m making them ahead of time so I have them in the freezer and a container ready to bake anytime.
