Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 375 F.
Streusel
  1. In a small bowl, combine all the listed ingredients under streusel topping except the butter.
  2. Use a fork to smoosh the butter into the sugars and spices. It should be about the consistency of coarse sand with some lumpy bits. Set this aside.
  3. Slice the butter into small cubes and add into the mixture.
Muffins
  1. Begin by combining the wet ingredients in a large bowl. This includes the pumpkin, melted butter, egg, milk, and sugar. Whisk together well.
  2. Next, sprinkle the dry ingredients on top. This includes flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  3. Mix all the ingredients together with a rubber spatula until just combined. The batter will be a little lumpy!
  4. Line a muffin pan with either disposable or silicone cupcake liners.
  5. Place one large spoonful of batter in the liner.
  6. ​​Next, add one large spoonful of streusel mix on top of the batter.
  7. Again, add another large spoonful of batter on top of that. It should come to just under the top of the liner.
  8. Lastly, add a final spoonful of streusel mix to the top, being sure to spread it evenly. You want a fairly thick layer as the streusel will spread out as the muffin bakes.
  9. Bake at 375 for 18-20 minutes.
  10. ​Remove from the oven and cool in the pan on a wire rack. As soon as the muffins are cool enough to touch, remove them from the pan and cool them on the rack.
Glaze
  1. Combine all ingredients with a whisk.
  2. Drizzle over cooled muffins
