How to Make Banana Pineapple Streusel Muffins

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease and flour a loaf pan.
**Make the Streusel Topping:** In a medium bowl, combine 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup packed brown sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cut in 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Set aside.
**Make the Batter:** In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
Stir in 1/2 cup chopped pecans (optional).
In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1/2 cup vegetable oil, 1 cup mashed ripe bananas (about 2 medium), 1 cup drained crushed pineapple, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
For muffins: Fill the muffin cups about 2/3 full. For loaves: Pour batter into prepared loaf pans.
Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the batter.
**Bake:** Muffins: Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Loaves: Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
