Banana Nut Streusel Muffins
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large ripe bananas, mashed
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
- For Streusel Topping:
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 1/4 cup chopped walnuts
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease with non-stick cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups of flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, mix together melted butter and granulated sugar until well combined. Add mashed bananas, milk, and vanilla extract, and stir until smooth.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and gently fold together until just combined. Do not overmix. Fold in the chopped walnuts.
- Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
- To make the streusel topping, in a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup flour and 1/4 cup sugar. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the chopped walnuts.
- Sprinkle the streusel topping over the muffin batter in the cups.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
- Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
Banana Nut Streusel Muffins have a rich history dating back to the early 20th century when home bakers in the United States began experimenting with adding bananas and nuts to traditional muffin recipes. The combination of ripe bananas and crunchy nuts creates a delightful texture and flavor that has become a beloved classic. Chefs in the southern states, known for their love of comfort food, have perfected the art of making these muffins, infusing them with a warm, homey aroma. Today, the best versions of this dish can be found in cozy bakeries and cafes across the country, where the key to perfection lies in using ripe bananas and a generous amount of streusel topping. For a unique twist, some bakers incorporate cinnamon or chocolate chips into the batter, adding an extra layer of indulgence to this timeless treat.
