Easy Pumpkin streusel Muffins

I’m loving the spice cake mix + canned pumpkin hack for making all things pumpkin! Have you tried our 3 ingredient pumpkin cookies? It’s such an easy way to make cookies, muffins, donuts, and cake. As a bonus, when you use canned pumpkin you can omit butter or vegetable oil!

These muffins have a delicious topping and are drizzled in vanilla glaze. The glaze is completely optional but delicious. Chopped walnuts are mixed in for added crunch, but you can leave those out if you prefer. One batch makes 18 muffins. Make a batch and they’ll stay soft all week!

If you’d prefer to make a loaf or a cake instead of muffins simply follow the baking times on the back of the cake mix box.
