Bananalicious Crumb Muffins

Happy Friday!  If you haven't already guessed, I have a sweet tooth the size of Texas.  When we have a few overripe bananas in the house (which is often), I whip up a batch of these yummies for breakfast.  Because banana's are good for you right hehehe.  I'm sure the the sugar crunch topping is totally neutralized by all the good stuff in the banana!


Bananalicious Crumb Muffins

Muffin Ingredients:
1 1/2 cup flour (all-purpose)
3 very ripe bananas, mashed
3/4 cup sugar
1 egg
1/3 cup butter, melted
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt

Topping Ingredients
1/3 cup brown sugar, packed
2 tablespoons flour
1 tablespoon butter

Directions:
  1. Preheat oven to 375 and lightly grease 10 muffin cups or 8 mini loaf pans
  2. In a large bowl, mix together flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt
  3. In another bowl, beat together the bananas, sugar, egg and melted butter
  4. Stir the banana mixture into the dry ingredients until just moistened
  5. Spoon batter into prepared pan(s)
  6. In a small bowl mix the brown sugar and flour for the topping
  7. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse cornmeal
  8. Sprinkle topping over muffin batter
  9. Bake in preheated oven (18-20 minutes for muffins, 20-25 minutes for mini loaves) or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin/loaf comes out clean
