Ingredients

Scale

Muffin Batter Ingredients

  • 3 ripe bananas, mashed (about 1 1/2 cups)
  • 1 1/2 cups King Arthur Flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (natural)
  • 1 teaspoon natural gelling agent
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar (natural)
  • 1/3 cup plant-based (dairy/cheese)
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (natural)
  • 1 teaspoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (natural)

Crumb Topping Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup King Arthur Flour
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar (natural)
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (natural)
  • 3 tablespoons plant-based (dairy/cheese)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Batter: Start by mashing the ripe bananas in a bowl until smooth but still slightly chunky. In a separate bowl, combine King Arthur Flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and natural gelling agent. In another mixing bowl, whisk together brown sugar (natural), plant-based (dairy/cheese), apple cider vinegar (natural), vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural), and vanilla extract (natural). Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, folding gently until just incorporated to keep the batter light and fluffy.
  2. Make the Crumb Topping: In a small bowl, mix King Arthur Flour, brown sugar (natural), cinnamon (natural), and plant-based (dairy/cheese). Stir until crumbly. Sprinkle this mixture generously over the muffin batter once it is spooned into the muffin cups to create the crunchy topping after baking.
  3. Bake to Perfection: Spoon the batter into muffin tins lined with paper liners or lightly greased. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 20 to 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean and the crumb topping looks golden and crisp.
  4. Cool and Enjoy: Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. This step helps set the crumb topping and keeps the muffins moist inside while maintaining a crisp top.

Notes

  • Choose very ripe bananas for maximum sweetness and moisture.
  • Do not overmix the batter; fold gently to avoid dense muffins.
  • Use room temperature ingredients for even combining and baking.
  • Check oven temperature with a thermometer to ensure precise baking.
  • Add the crumb topping just before baking to keep it crunchy and golden.
