Apple Banana Muffins with Streusel Topping

🧂 Ingredients

• 3 bananas

  (large, over-ripe)
• 2 large eggs

  (beaten)
• 2 apples

  (medium, semi-sweet apple variety)
• ⅓ cup butter

  (melted, or vegetable oil - coconut oil is best)
• 1 cup sugar
• 2 teaspoon vanilla bean paste

  (or extract)
• 1 ½ teaspoon baking soda
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon nutmeg
• 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
• 1 portion brown sugar streusel recipe (see recipe)

Instructions

• 1 Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease, butter, or spray muffin pan(s)
  with non-stick cooking spray. You can also use the paper muffin liners.
• 2 Melt the butter (or use oil, we prefer coconut oil) and allow to cool slightly
  while mashing your over-ripe bananas. Mix in the beaten eggs.
• 3 Chop apples by hand or use a food processor, if desired. Add finely chopped
  apples (I use honeycrisp the most, also braeburn and galas) to the mashed
  bananas and stir until evenly distributed through the banana mixture.
• 4 Add the melted butter or oil, stir to combine. Then add sugar, vanilla bean
  paste, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Mix thoroughly, then add the
  flour and combine until the flour is fully mixed in to make a lumpy batter.
• 5 Fill muffin pan or liner ⅔ full and top with the brown sugar streusel crumb
  topping mixture [https://bakeitwithlove.com/brown-sugar-streusel/].
  
• 6 Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the
  muffin center comes out clean.
• 7 Remove from the oven and allow to cool in the muffin pan for 5-10 minutes before
  transferring to a wire cooling rack to cool completely. Or serve while still
  warm, if desired.
