Banana Crumb Muffins
Description
The batter is made by mixing dry ingredients—flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt—with wet ingredients including mashed bananas, sugar, egg, vanilla, and canola oil. This combination results in a soft batter that bakes into moist muffins with a delicate crumb. The muffins are portioned into liners or sprayed pans.
A crumb topping consisting of brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, and butter is crumbled atop each muffin before baking. The butter melts during baking creating a sweet and slightly crunchy topping that contrasts with the soft muffin interior. The muffins bake at 375 degrees until they spring back lightly when touched, indicating doneness.
These Banana Crumb Muffins offer a balanced sweetness from bananas and sugar with cinnamon adding warmth. They are suitable for breakfast, lunchboxes, or casual snacks.
