Ingredients you’ll need

Here’s a list of ingredients you’ll need to make these muffins. You can find my recipe card at the bottom of this post for the complete list with their amounts.

For the muffins:

• plain/all-purpose flour
• caster/granulated sugar
• baking powder
• baking soda
• salt
• ground cinnamon
• ground nutmeg
• egg
• mashed bananas (you’ll need 2 large bananas)
• vanilla extract
• vegetable oil
• greek-style yogurt

For the crumb topping:

• plain/all-purpose flour
• brown sugar
• ground cinnamon
• unsalted butter

How to make Banana Crumb Muffins

To make these banana muffins, simply whisk together the dry ingredients in one bowl, and the wet ingredients in another.

Add the dry ingredients to the wet, and mix until just combined.

For the crumb topping, whisk together the flour, sugar, and cinnamon. Add the butter, and work it in until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Spoon the muffin batter into a greased muffin pan (or use muffin cases!), and top with the crumb mixture.

Bake for 15 – 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean.

Enjoy warm with a cup of tea or coffee, or let them cool completely and store.

The printable recipe card with the FULL list of ingredients and instructions can be found at the bottom of this post.

NOTE: For best results, I highly recommend using the gram measurements (with a digital scale), rather than the cup measurements.

Cup measurements are simply not accurate enough, and I cannot guarantee the best results if you use them.

These Banana Crumb Muffins are:

• so quick and easy to throw together
• full of incredible flavours – banana, cinnamon, and nutmeg!
• moist and fluffy
• topped with a cinnamon-spiced buttery crumb
• perfect for breakfast or a snack

If storing these muffins, keep them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. These also freeze well for up to 2 months!

Before eating, I like to warm mine up in the microwave for a few seconds. Mmmmm.
