Moist Banana Streusel Muffins
Melissa Lindsey Gibson
"These moist muffins were created in my kitchen while trying to bake with whole wheat flour, which has more fiber than all-purpose flour."

Ready In
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Spray 10 muffin cups with cooking spray.
- Whisk 1 1/2 cups sifted whole wheat flour with baking soda, baking powder, salt, and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon in a large bowl. Mix together mashed bananas, 1/2 cup melted unsalted butter, egg, white sugar, and vanilla extract in a separate bowl. Gently fold banana mixture into dry ingredients just until moistened; do not overmix. Spoon batter into prepared muffin cups, filling them about 3/4 full.
- Mix dark brown sugar with 2 tablespoons whole wheat flour and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon in a bowl, stirring until combined; mash 1 tablespoon unsalted butter into the mixture with a fork until streusel topping resembles crumbs. Sprinkle topping over muffins.
- Bake muffins in the preheated oven until a toothpick comes out clean or with moist crumbs, about 20 minutes.
Footnotes
- Cook's Note:
- Sifting the whole wheat flour adds air and allows the wheat flour to become lighter, so that the muffins are less dense.

Great whole wheat alternative to the popular "Banana Crumb Muffins" recipe. Made these muffins several times, store them in the freezer, and they are great!

Loved it!! Best muffins I've ever made. Skipped the streusal bit because I thought it would be too sweet (was naughty and added some apple sauce). Was great warm but got even more moist when coo...

Go figure, I forgot butter when I went shopping, so I subbed some yogurt. The muffins did turn out good enough to make me go back for seconds. They were very moist.
