I love muffins in the morning. Foruntely there never seems to be a shortage of great recipes, and I love to try all of them! I’ve been hoarding this recipe for some time, but with how much Nathan has been gone for work, I haven’t had a chance to make them. Now that he is mostly back in town for a month or so, it seemed like the perfect time to try them out!
Banana Crumb Muffins {from AllRecipes.com}
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3 bananas, mashed
- 3/4 cup white sugar
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- 1/3 cup butter, melted
- 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon butter
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease 10 muffin cups, or line with muffin papers.
- In a large bowl, mix together 1 1/2 cups 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.
4. In a small bowl, mix together brown sugar, 2 tablespoons flour and cinnamon. Cut in 1 tablespoon butter until mixture resembles coarse cornmeal. Sprinkle topping over muffins. 
5. Bake in preheated oven for 18 to 20 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into center of a muffin comes out clean. 
Grade: A
Comments: These were so, so good. I could have eaten a lot more than just one! The banana flavor is definitely there, but it is not overwhelming at all. I put some butter on mine while it was still hot, and it was absolutely perfect. These would be great for a brunch or picnic. Definitely don’t skip the brown sugar topping. It added just the right amount of crunch and sweet!
