BANANA COFFEE CAKE MUFFINS

I am keeping with the breakfast theme today and sharing a recipe for Banana Coffee Cakes. If you have read my blog before you know I make a lot of breakfast items for church and I just love to throw a brunch. These are some of the yummiest muffins you can make. They truly are mini coffee cakes. They are buttery and have the perfect amount of banana flavor.

Sometimes I think muffins can be kinda boring. They are just the filler item that nobody really eats. They can be bland or dry and donuts are just better. I know…I know…I think the same things. But a really good muffins is really worth it and these are REALLY GOOD MUFFINS. If you are looking for something to spice up that family brunch, this is a great recipe to try.

STEP 3: Add eggs and vanilla and beat until smooth.

STEP 4: Add mashed bananas and mix.

STEP 5: Whisk together the 1 1/2 cups flour, baking powder and salt.

STEP 6: Stir the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients.

STEP 7: Fold in the sour cream gently until just incorporated.

STEP 8: Divide batter into muffin cups (either greased and floured or use muffin liners).

STEP 9: Sprinkle streusel on top of muffins.

STEP 10: Bake at 350 for 18-20 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.
