Banana Crumb Muffins

I decided to make this recipe because I had just purchased a bunch of 5 ripe bananas from the supermarket on sale for a dollar. Not wanting to just make banana bread I searched for a different banana recipe. These muffins came out to be absolutely delicious and served to be my mom’s breakfast for a while.

INGREDIENTS
• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 tsp cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp nutmeg
• 3 bananas, mashed
• 3/4 cup white sugar
• 1 egg, lightly beaten
• 1/3 cup butter, melted
• 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon butter

DIRECTIONS
1) Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease 12 muffin cups, or line with muffin papers.

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

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

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