Ingredients
For the Muffins:
- 1 and 1/2 cups All-Purpose Flour
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
- 1 egg
- 3/4 cup white Sugar
- 3 ripe bananas, mashed
For the Crumb Topping:
- 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 Tablespoons flour
- 1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 Tablespoon butter
Directions
1
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
2
Grease muffin pan, or use muffin liners. I used ten 5-inch square pieces of parchment paper. If you do this as well, it does help to spray a little non-stick spray in the pan and then firmly place the parchment paper in each muffin slot.
3
Mix together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
4
In a separate bowl, mash bananas and add sugar, butter, and egg.
5
Combine this with the flour mixture and stir until just combined. Spoon into muffin pan.
6
For the crumb topping: In a small bowl, mix together brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon. Add butter. Sprinkle crumb topping on top of the muffins.
7
Bake at 375 for 18-20 minutes. Insert a toothpick and they are done if the toothpick comes out clean. Makes 10 muffins
These turned out super delicious, tender and moist! What a great way to use up really ripe bananas too!
Mmm these sound fantastic!
I am so going to make this. Got free Baking Soda from Smiley 360!
I have made these, actually had one this morning and the recipe is fantastic! If you go to the allrecipes website there a few alterations that can be made that really bump up the flavor!
Uhh those look delicious!
Looks yummo…. Can we substitute oil for butter in this? If so how much? I make banana bread with oil no butter and we love it!!!
I make a vegan banana muffin with oil and I add 1/3 cup of oil for 1.5 cups of flour. HTH
Ok thanks!
wat is the substitute for egg? I am a vegan too
Yes, I have made these before. Great recipe. Something about that topping! Butter cinnamon and brown sugar…. How can it be bad?
Perfect timing!! I have 3 bananas I was about to pitch 😃
For the topping do you melt the butter?
No cold but not too firm works great! So maybe set it out while you prepare the first part. Thanks!
This is one of my favorite recipes. I substitute apple sauce for half of the melted butter and I can’t tell the difference.
How much applesauce do you substitute for 1/2 of the butter?
So yummy gotta try making them
Looks so yummy! Can I substitude coconut oil for the butter?
*substitute*
Okay, what am I doing wrong? My crumb top doesn’t look anything like yours. In fact it just looks like the topping melted into the muffin, no crumbly look at all! This happens every time I make homemade crumb topping!
Hmm wondering what temp was your butter? Cold yet a little soft is what I did. Did it look crumbly before you cooked them?
Yes, it looked just like the picture. I took the butter out while I did everything else like you had suggested. You can’t even tell that I put a topping on it.
Once again Lina you have “out-done” yourself!!!!
I use plain greek non fat yogurt for oil butter.
