    Instructions
    1. Line a muffin pan with liners and set aside.
    2. Make the streusel topping by mixing the flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon together with a fork until evenly combined. Add the melted butter and stir just until crumbly. Set aside.
    3. In a small bowl, make the cheesecake filling by combining the softened cream cheese, sugar, egg, and vanilla extract. Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, beat until smooth and creamy. Set aside.
    4. Preheat the oven to 425°F.
    5. In a large bowl, whisk together the fresh milled soft white flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, and salt.
    6. In a separate bowl, whisk together the pumpkin purée, eggs, sugar, brown sugar, melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
    7. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix just until combined. Be careful not to overmix.
    8. Spoon 3 tablespoons of batter into each muffin liner. Add 1 tablespoon of cheesecake filling to the center. You can gently spread it into an even layer or use a butter knife to lightly swirl it. Top with 2 more tablespoons of muffin batter.
    9. Sprinkle about 1 tablespoon of streusel topping over each muffin and gently press it in so it stays in place while baking.
    10. Bake for 5 minutes at 425°F, then reduce the oven temperature to 350°F and continue baking for 15 minutes, or until the tops are set and lightly golden.
    11. Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5–7 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack to finish cooling.
