How to Make Banana Crunch Muffins
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
- In a large bowl, mash bananas until mostly smooth. Add sugar, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix well.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, oats, and flour for the topping. Cut in the butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until crumbly.
- Fill each muffin cup about 2/3 full with batter. Sprinkle evenly with the crumble topping.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
