There are few things that I enjoy more than Fall Baking! The smells of a freshly baked Apple Pie, Zucchini Bread or these Mini Pumpkin Muffins with Streusel Topping can often be found coming from my kitchen.

The Streusel Topping sets these Pumpkin Muffins apart from your ordinary muffin. It adds a bit more flavor and crunch to an already delicious muffin!

Heading to the apple orchard and pumpkin patch is a family tradition. Here in Northwest Indiana, we are blessed to have homegrown vegetables and plenty of orchards. And it seems as soon as the kids are back in school and September hits, the weather begins to cool down making it perfect to head into the kitchen and whip up a delicious treat or put on a big pot for some favorite soup recipes.

These Pumpkin Muffins are perfect anytime of day, they are hearty enough for a quick breakfast snack, great to pack in lunches or enjoy after school, and certainly great to take to a Fall Party. They can be made in regular size as well, but I like the minis.

It’s time to start baking, join me for Fall Baking!
