Step-by-Step Instructions for Bakery-Style Pumpkin Muffins
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) while you gather your ingredients. Line a muffin tin with paper liners to make for easy removal later.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, mix together the wet ingredients: pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, brown sugar, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and gently fold together until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
  5. In a separate bowl, mix the crumble topping ingredients together: flour, brown sugar, and cold butter until resembling coarse crumbs.
  6. Fill each muffin liner about ¾ full with batter and sprinkle the crumble topping on each.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes until muffins are golden-brown, checking doneness with a toothpick.
  8. Allow muffins to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
