These are FANTASTIC! I made them for my sons preschool halloween party, and they were devoured. Even my picky eaters loved them. The apples and streusel add some nice texture, as pumpkin alone can seem a bit mushy. This is what I did:
I made mini-muffins. This recipe made about 72, and cooked in 15-18 minutes. I used a whole can of pumpkin; this made them very moist and crumbly,which i liked. If you want them to hold together well, maybe follow the recipe or split the difference. I doubled the spice, which I would definitely do again. It does taste almost like a spice cake though, so if you want more pumpkin flavor then just follow the recipe. I doubled the streusel for the mini-muffins, since you have more surface area.
Note that the streusel recipe calls for 4 TEASPOONS of butter, not tablespoons! I made that mistake the first time, and the topping melted everywhere. My guess is that other reviewers who complained about the streusel made the same mistake.
