These banana muffins taste indulgent but are whole grain and significantly healthier than bake shop muffins.
Serves: 12 muffins
Ingredients
  • 3.5 large very ripe bananas (about 1¾ cups), fork mashed
  • 1 egg
  • ¼ cup canola or other flavorless oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • ½ cup whole milk yogurt (I use Stonyfield)
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • 2 cups white whole wheat flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • dash of nutmeg
  • Streusel Topping:
  • 2 Tbsp whole wheat flour
  • 3 Tbsp rolled oats
  • 3 Tbsp brown sugar
  • 2 Tbsp salted butter
  • Few dashes of cinnamon
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400. Line a muffin pan with paper muffin cups and spray with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. Whisk bananas, egg, oil, vanilla, yogurt and sugars in a mixing bowl.
  3. In a separate medium bowl, gently combine flour, baking soda and powder, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg.
  4. Add the dry ingredients to the wet, ⅓ of the mixture at a time, stirring just until combined.
  5. Divide batter among the 12 muffin cups.
  6. For the streusel topping, combine all ingredients with a fork or your fingers, then sprinkle a little topping over each muffin cup.
  7. Bake for 15-17 minutes.
  8. Let cool in the muffin pan for 5 minutes, then remove to a cooling rack and wait another 5 minutes before eating.
Notes
Substitute any mashed fruit for the bananas - peaches, mangoes, etc - and you can make fruit muffins of all kinds!
