Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 15.25 oz. box carrot cake mix
  • 15 oz. can pure pumpkin
  • 2 Tbsp. flour
  • 2 Tbsp. brown sugar
  • 1 tsp. granulated sugar
  • 1/4 tsp. cinnamon
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp. butter, cold

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 400°. Line muffin pan with cupcake liners.
  2. In large bowl, thoroughly mix cake mix with pumpkin.
  3. Divide batter evenly into liners; liners will be full.
  4. Mix flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and cinnamon together.
  5. Cut cold butter into flour mixture using a pastry blender, fork, or two knives until crumbly.
  6. Spoon the streusel evenly onto muffin batter.
  7. Bake for 20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  8. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Here's a trick: Spoon a little streusel onto the raw muffin batter and tamp it down with the back of your spoon. This makes room for more streusel and prevents batter from sticking to your spoon.
