Banana Crumb Muffins

I think I have finally found another winning banana recipe.  Yes, there are so many out there, but just not many can come close to our love of this banana bread recipe.  These muffins are heavenly.  My only complaint is that I think I will need to do a double batch next time because these only lasted a few hours here.

Banana Crumb Muffins

1 1/2 c. all-purpose flour

1 tsp. baking powder

1 tsp. baking soda

3/4 tsp. cinnamon

1/2 tsp. salt

3 bananas, mashed

3/4 c. granulated sugar

1 egg, lightly beaten

1 tsp. vanilla

1/3 c. butter, melted

1/3 c. packed brown sugar

2 Tbsp. all-purpose flour

1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon

1 Tbsp. butter

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.  Lightly spray 10 nonstick muffin cups with nonstick cooking spray, or line with paper muffin cups.

In a large bowl, mix together 1 1/2 c. flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.  In another bowl, beat together bananas, granulated sugar, egg, vanilla, and melted butter.  Stir the banana mixture into the flour mixture just until moistened.  Spoon batter into prepared muffin cups.  

In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, 2 Tbsp. flour, and cinnamon.  Cut in 1 Tbsp. butter until  mixture resembles coarse cornmeal.  Sprinkle topping over muffins.

Bake in a preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
