This is round two of the pumpkin madness that ensued in my kitchen last weekend and probably my favorite of all the treats that were baked.
Anything with streusel on top is going to be great- because streusel on its own its amazing. I made so much extra streusel while making this, I was forced to make another baked good to top with all of it.
These muffins make a great breakfast, snack, or even dessert - and if you are not a fan of pumpkin, you can leave it out and have a really good spiced streusel muffin as well!

Browned Butter Brown Sugar Oatmeal Cookies [w/ Maple & Cardamom]
Growing up I always hated oatmeal cookies. I was convinced they were only the 'healthy' cookies that my grandparents and their friends ate, especially the ones with raisins. I could tolerate the ones that had chocolate chips in them. Things have changed though, and while I still do not like oatmeal-raisin cookies, having fun with flavor combinations can turn a dull oatmeal cookie into something completely wonderful.
When you brown butter, it becomes rich and nutty which is a perfect way to transform these cookies. Brown sugar and maple syrup compliment each other perfectly and instead of the typical cinnamon that goes with this cookie, how about cardamom? Its very potent, but the perfect pinch brings these cookies to a whole other level. I would definitely recommend these to those who are not a fan of oatmeal cookies, because that will become a thing of a past.
