Banana Crumb Muffin

Banana Crumb Muffins

*****

These are SO YUMMY! Hubby can't rate them because he has an abnormal fear of bananas. But it's the crumb topping that make these SUPERB!

INGREDIENTS:

1 1/2 c. all-purpose flour

1 tsp. baking soda

1 tsp. baking powder

1/2 tsp. salt

3 bananas, mashed

3/4 c. white sugar

1 egg, lightly beaten

1/3 c. butter, melted

1/3 c. packed brown sugar

2 Tbsp. all-purpose flour

1/8 tsp. ground cinnamon

1 Tbsp. butter

DIRECTIONS:

1. Preheat oven to 375*. Lightly grease 10 muffin cups, or line with muffin papers.

2. In a large bowl, mix together 1 1/2 c. flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt. In another bowl, beat together bananas, sugar, egg and melted butter. Stir the banana mixture into the flour mixture just until moistened. Spoon batter into prepared muffin cups.

3. In a small bowl, mix together brown sugar, 2 Tbsp. flour and cinnamon. Cut in 1 Tbsp. butter until mixture resembles coarse cornmeal. Sprinkle topping over muffins.

4. Bake in preheated oven for 18-20 min, until a toothpick inserted into center of muffin comes out clean.

** This makes a yummy crunchy top. If you want more of a crumbly streusel topping, bake muffins without topping and just put the streusel onto bake for last 5 more minutes.**
