Coffee Cake Banana Bread Muffins: A Perfect Morning Treat 🍌☕

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease well.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
  3. In a large bowl, mash the bananas. Add the granulated sugar, brown sugar, egg, oil, and vanilla extract. Whisk until well combined.
  4. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the muffins tender.
  5. In a small bowl, mix together the crumb topping ingredients: flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and melted butter. Stir until crumbly.
  6. Divide the muffin batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full. Sprinkle the crumb topping generously over each muffin.
  7. Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. Allow to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
