Muffins

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

2 teaspoons ground supreme Saigon cinnamon

2 teaspoons salted caramel spice (such as Savory Spice)

1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1 pinch salt

1 stick unsalted butter, softened

1/2 cup packed light brown sugar

1/4 cup white sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste

2 large eggs

1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree

1/4 cup honey vanilla Greek yogurt

1 cup chopped walnuts

Streusel Topping

3/4 cup all-purpose flour

1/3 cup brown sugar

1 tablespoon salted caramel spice (such as Savory Spice)

1/4 teaspoon ground supreme Saigon cinnamon

5 tablespoons cold butter, cut into pieces

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a standard 12-cup muffin pan or line with paper liners.

Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, salted caramel spice, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt together in a bowl; set aside.

Beat butter, brown sugar, and white sugar together in a large bowl until creamy. Add vanilla bean paste and eggs, one at a time, beating between additions. Add pumpkin and yogurt, beat well.

Add flour mixture a little at a time, beating between each addition. Fold in walnuts.

For streusel topping, combine flour, brown sugar, salted caramel spice, and cinnamon in a bowl and mix together with a fork. Cut in butter with a pastry blender or a fork until mixture resembles coarse meal.

Fill muffin cups 3/4 full with batter. Sprinkle each with streusel topping. 

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven to cool; serve warm or at room temperature.

Cook’s Note

I purchased my salted caramel spice from the Savory Spice shop. The McCormick company has something called salted caramel, but it may be a different flavor profile.
