Preparation

Step 1

The topping:

Mix the spices and brown sugar, and then work in the butter with a knife or pastry cutter. This will top all three dozen muffins if it's sprinkled on the top of each one

THE MUFFIN RECIPES
Spray or grease muffin pan for 12 muffins. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Mix the sugar and oil together. Add the two eggs, and beat well. Blend in the pumpkin and the water. In another bowl combine and mix the flour, baking soda and powder, the spices and the salt. Add this to the wet ingredients, stirring until just moistened. Spoon into the muffin tins, leaving a little space at the top. Sprinkle with the topping above if desired.

Bake for 15-20 minutes until light browned and they test done with a toothpick.
