Banana Blueberry Crumb Muffins
Description
This recipe mixes mashed bananas with sugar, beaten egg, and melted butter before folding the mixture into a dry blend of flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Fresh blueberries are gently folded into the batter to maintain their shape. The crumb topping consists of brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, and cold butter cut together for a crumbly texture that toasts during baking.
The muffins are baked until a toothpick comes out clean, resulting in a moist crumb with tender banana notes and scattered fruit bursts. The cinnamon-spiced topping delivers a slight crunch and sweetness that complements the soft muffin beneath. Baking at a moderate temperature ensures even cooking and a golden crust.
These muffins suit breakfast or snack times and can be cooled completely for easy handling. They showcase how combining fruit with a crumb topping creates a satisfying early morning treat with a combination of soft and crunchy textures.
