Method
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and line your muffin tin. (This recipe makes 12 muffins).
Step 2
In a large bowl, combine the pumpkin purée, 2 tbsp of the strong brewed chai tea, 2 tbsp milk, melted butter, egg, sugar, vanilla extract, and cinnamon. Then, stir in the flour and baking powder until just combined.
Step 3
To make the streusel topping, place the brown sugar, flour, oats, and sliced cold butter in a small bowl. Use a fork to combine the mixture into small crumbs.
Step 4
Fill each of your muffin cups about 3/4 full of batter. Then, top each one with a rounded tablespoon of the streusel mixture.
Step 5
Bake for 25 minutes. Meanwhile, make the glaze by combining the powdered sugar with 2 tbsp of the strong chai tea in a small bowl. Set aside.
Step 6
When your muffins are baked, a toothpick inserted into the center should come out mostly clean. Remove them from the oven and set them on a wire rack to cool completely. Once cooled, drizzle the glaze on top of each one and enjoy!
