Ingredients
  

Muffins

  • 1 1/2 cup Pumpkin puree
  • 1/4 cup Oil
  • 1 Large Banana
  • 2 tbsp Milk
  • 1/2 cup White sugar
  • 1/4 cup Brown sugar

  • 3 tbsp Demerara sugar
  • 1/4 cup Pecans toasted and chopped
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 180℃. Line your muffin tray with baking paper squares, it does have to be pretty as the batter will hold the paper down.
  • In a large mixing bowl add the wet ingredients for the muffins and mix together until smooth. Add the dry ingredients for the muffins and mix again until you have a smooth batter. Don’t over mix
  • Spoon the batter into the muffin cases. Be patient here and a little mess hurt no body.
  • To make the crumble topping, mix all the ingredients in a bowl and sprinkle over the muffins evenly.
  • Bake for 22-25 mins until they have risen, the top is dry to the touch, gold brown and a tooth pick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Once baked, leave in the tin to cool for a few minutes before transferring the muffins out of the tray and onto a wire rack.
  • Serve as it is or with some ice cream.

Notes

  • Do not over mix the muffin batter. Once it is smooth just spoon the mixture into the tins.
