Pumpkin Muffins With Pecan Crumb Topping

• 2 cups All-purpose Flour
• 1/2 teaspoons Salt
• 1/2 teaspoons Baking Powder
• 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
• 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoons Ground Nutmeg
• 1/2 teaspoons Ground Mace
• 1/2 teaspoons All Spice
• 1-1/2 stick Unsalted Butter, At Room Temperature
• 1-1/2 cup Sugar
• 2 whole Large Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Pure Vanilla
• 1-1/2 cup Pumpkin Puree
• FOR THE CRUMB TOPPING:
• 1/3 cups Brown Sugar
• 1/2 cups Chopped Pecans
• 3 Tablespoons All-purpose Flour
• 3 Tablespoons Room Temperature, Unsalted Butter

1. Preheat oven to 350u0b0F or 180u0b0C. Line muffin pans with liners or spray with cooking spray.
2. In a mixing bowl, sift flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and spices. (Feel free to use 2 teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice if you like, instead of mixing cinnamon, mace, all-spice and nutmeg.)
3. In the bowl of an electric mixer (or another big mixing bowl), beat butter and sugar until mixed. Add eggs one at a time, beating well on medium speed after each addition, until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add vanilla and pumpkin puree and mix to combine. You might have to scrape the sides of bowl a few times. A rubber or silicone spatula comes in handy for this. Slowly add flour mixture while mixer is at lowest speed. Beat until just combined and do not over-mix.
4. To make the crumb topping, in a separate bowl, add all the crumb topping ingredients and mash together with a fork until thoroughly combined.
5. Using an ice cream scoop or 1/4 cup measure, divide muffin batter among muffin pans, filling each muffin about 3/4 full. Once all the batter has been used, top each muffin with the crumb topping. Bake in the middle rack of the oven for about 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle of a muffin comes out clean. Cool the muffins on a cooling rack for 10 minutes.
