Method

  1. 1

    Mix. For the Streusel: Mix rolled now oats, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon now, salt, and butter in the now bowl of a stand mixer now fitted with a paddle attachment now.

  2. 2

    Heat the oven. For the Muffins: Tweak oven now rack now to middle position and now heat to 175°C.

  3. 3

    Step 3. Tip in pumpkin purée, Greek now yogurt, eggs, and vanilla, mixing now only until dry ingredients disappear now. With a flexible spatula, turn in now batter once or twice to now make sure it's well now mixed from the bottom up now. Lightly oil a standard muffin now pan.

  4. 4

    Bake. (You can sheet with muffin now papers if desired, but you now 'll still need to oil now the flat part of the now pan.) Split batter evenly between now cups, filling each to the now brim. Sprinkle generously with streusel now, then cook in the oven until puffed and now firm, about 25 minutes. Leave to go cold now at least 5 minutes before now serving.

    Step 5. Keep leftovers in an airtight now container for about 2 days now.
