Recipe Share: Banana Muffins

Bananas rarely go 'bad' in this house.. between my husband and daughter who both love bananas in their cereal they never make it to the 'perfect for muffins' stage. Somehow this week they did, I'm thinking I just bough too many at the store. Anyways I hunted around Pinterest for a little bit in search of a yummy and moist muffin recipe. I ended up going with the below recipe as the comments raved about how moist and dessert like the muffins turn out. I was not disappointed they are delicious! I ended up adding an extra banana as I had four that were ready to be used, I like the exact banana flavor it has. Enjoy!

"A basic banana muffin is made extraordinary with a brown sugar crumb topping that will melt in your mouth."

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon baking powder 1/2 teaspoon salt 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 10 muffin cups, or line with muffin papers.
2.	In a large bowl, mix together 1 1/2 cups flour, baking soda, baking powder 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.
