Banana Streusel Muffins Recipe

Prep: 15 min. Bake: 20 min.

Yield: 18 Servings

15 20 35

Ingredients

2 cups self-rising flour
3/4 cup sugar
1 egg
1 cup (8 ounces) plain yogurt
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1-1/3 cups mashed ripe banana (2 to 3 medium)
1 cup chopped pecans or walnuts
TOPPING:
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup sugar
3 tablespoons butter, melted
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

In a bowl, combine flour and sugar. In another bowl, beat the egg, yogurt and oil. Stir into dry ingredients just until combined. Fold in bananas and nuts. Fill greased or paper-lined muffin cups two-thirds full.
Combine topping ingredients; sprinkle over batter. Bake at 400° for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks. Yield: about 1-1/2 dozen.

Editor's Note: As a substitute for each cup of self-rising flour, place 1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a measuring cup. Add all-purpose flour to measure 1 cup.
