--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   2               cups  spelt flour -- or whole wheat flour, (260 g)

   1 1/2      teaspoons  ground cinnamon
      1/2      teaspoon  ground nutmeg
      1/2      teaspoon  ground ginger

   1           teaspoon  baking soda
   1           teaspoon  baking powder
   1                cup  brown sugar -- (220 g)

   1                cup  chocolate chips -- (180 g)
      1/2           cup  chopped pecans -- (49.5 g)
                         For the Crumb Topping:
      1/2           cup  spelt flour -- or whole wheat flour (65 g)
      1/4      teaspoon  salt
      1/3           cup  brown sugar -- (73.33 g)
      1/4      teaspoon  ground cinnamon
      1/8      teaspoon  ground nutmeg
      1/8      teaspoon  ground ginger
      1/8      teaspoon  ground cloves
      1/4           cup  chopped pecans -- (24.75 g)
      1/4           cup  butter -- at room temperature (56.75 g)

These pumpkin streusel muffins have a soft and chewy interior and a 
deliciously crunchy streusel topping.  Add to it chocolate and pecans 
and you have an absolutely irresistible treat to enjoy throughout the 
fall and winter!

Prep: 15 mins
Cook: 30 mins
Total: 45 mins
Servings: 8 jumbo muffins

Preheat the oven to 375F. Grease a jumbo muffin tin.

In a small mixing bowl combine the flour with the salt, cinnamon, 
nutmeg, cloves, ginger, baking soda and baking powder and set aside.

In a large mixing bowl beat together the brown sugar, eggs, oil, and 
vanilla extract until combined. Stir in the pumpkin puree. Use a 
rubber spatula to stir in half of the buttermilk. Then fold in half 
of the flour mixture.

Fold in the other half of the buttermilk followed by the remaining 
half of the flour mixture. Don't over-stir or the muffins will be 
dense and heavy. Just fold it in until everything is incorporated 
(it's okay if a few small lumps remain). Stir in the chocolate chips 
and pecans.

Spoon the batter into the greased muffin pan, about 3/4 full. 
(Alternatively you can line the muffin pan with paper liners.)

To make the crumb topping, put all the ingredients in a small mixing 
bowl. Use your hand to thoroughly combine the mixture, then crumbling 
it into clumps. Sprinkle the crumb topping over the muffin batter.

For jumbo-sized muffins, bake in an oven preheated to 375F for 30 to 
35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out 
clean.  For standard-sized muffins bake for about 20 minutes or until 
a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean.

Let the muffins cool for a few minutes before removing them from the 
muffin pan.
