Pumpkin Pecan Muffins with a Sweet Pecan Crumble Topping
Something I will most definitely be whisking, mixing, and baking the week of Thanksgiving to share and have on hand, are these muffins. They are flavor-packed with pumpkin and a nutty base that is oh so yummy! Breakfast or snack? Both! Double the batch if you are having friends and family stay over. Did I mention they make your home smell heavenly?! You can warm them up and serve whenever your heart desires with a tall glass of milk or a hot cup of coffee. Let’s soak up the Thanksgiving season with just a few more pumpkin flavors this time of year alongside the ones you love gathered together, over food of course. 😉
