One Hundred Dollars a Month

Reader Megan sent me this recipe for Pumpkin muffins last week, and holy crackers people, these are freakin’ awesome.  Like so incredibly good Starbucks should be charging $5 each for them.  I ate 3 for breakfast this morning and I fully expect them to be gone by noon.

So if you have some fresh pumpkin puree, or canned pumpkin laying around, make these babies soon!

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda {15 Cool Uses for Baking Soda}
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup pumpkin puree
1/3 cup canola oil
1/2 cup applesauce
1/2 cup sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

Ingredients for the oatmeal streusel

3/4 cup old fashioned oats {I used quick oats}
1 tablespoon flour
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
4 tablespoon cold butter, sliced

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Place the ingredients for the oatmeal streusel topping in bowl and using your fingers work the ingredients together for a minute or two until they are nice and crumbly.

Mix all the ingredients for the muffins together in a large bowl until well combined.

Using a 3 tablespoon cookie scoop* scoop the batter into muffin cups or a well oiled muffin tin. Sprinkle the oatmeal topping over the batter and bake the muffins at 350 degrees for 22 minutes or until done.
