Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (350°F) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it.

  2. In a large bowl, combine the canned pumpkin, brown sugar, white sugar, neutral oil, eggs, milk, and vanilla extract. Mix until the batter is smooth and all wet ingredients are fully incorporated.

  3. Add the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and salt to the wet mixture. Fold gently until just combined; the batter should be slightly lumpy.

  4. Allow the batter to rest for a few minutes while you prepare the streusel topping.

  5. Prepare the streusel topping (ingredients not specified in the source) and sprinkle it evenly over the muffin batter in each cup.

  6. Bake the muffins for 18‑22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the streusel topping is golden and crunchy.

  7. Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool slightly before serving.
