Happy November, Friends! I’m Rita Joy from Harbour Breeze Home. Today I’m here to tell you about one of my favorite pumpkin recipes ~ Pumpkin Blueberry Streusel Muffins.
It’s a delightful tea or coffee time treat perfect for a chilly day. Although the recipe calls for blueberries, I find these are also delicious with frozen blackberries. The crispy streusel topping adds an extra special touch of just the right amount of sweetness with the fruit & pumpkin flavors.
I love how they can easily be mixed up by hand using just a few bowls. No fancy mixer is required for these! Here’s how to make them:

In a large bowl, mix together these dry ingredients:
- 2 1/2 cups flour
- 2 cups sugar
- 1 Tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 tsp. salt
In a second bowl, mix together these liquid ingredients:
- 1 1/4 cup pumpkin (not pumpkin pie filling)
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
Combine the liquid ingredients and the dry ingredients. Stir well.
Fold in 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries.
Fill 24 greased or paper lined muffin cups 3/4 full. (**My muffin tins are pretty large, so my muffins turned out a bit smaller.)
For the streusel topping, combine:
Cut in 2 Tablespoons butter with a pastry blender until crumbly.
Sprinkle the crumb topping over the muffin batter.
Bake at 350 degrees for 28-30 minutes.
Cool on wire racks.
Make yourself your favorite hot beverage while they are cooling.
Sit down, relax, and enjoy the taste of your masterpiece!
