Banana Peanut Butter Streusel Muffins

These banana peanut butter streusel muffins are soft, moist and combine a classic flavor combination in one delicious bite! These muffins are small batch (9 small cupcakes or 6 large muffins) and taste delicious even cold! Trust me when I say that these are an absolute crowd pleaser.

😋 Taste and features

• Soft yet still super moist
• Topped with a chunky peanut butter streusel
• Sweetened with bananas and brown sugar
• Small Batch – Only requires 2 bananas
• Goes perfectly with a dollop of jam!

🛒 Ingredient notes

• Oil: Oil keeps your muffins moist but still airy!
• Butter: Butter will be used for the streusel only.
• Sugar: A split between brown sugar and white sugar to get the perfect amount of sweetness!
• Egg: Just 1 egg to bind everything together!
• Flour:  Nothing fancy, just all purpose flour for this recipe!
• Baking Powder: Baking powder will help give these muffins lift!
• Peanut Butter: I used creamy peanut butter but if you’re a chunky fan – go for it!
• Bananas: Make sure they’re nice and ripe to enhance sweetness.

👩‍🍳 Top tips 

1. Don’t over-mix your batter – you want to make sure the ingredients are just combined but if you mix too much you’ll end up with dense muffins!
2. If you happen to be short one banana you can swap it out with apple sauce to make up for the difference.
3. Use “regular” peanut butter as natural peanut butter tends to separate (peanuts from oil) and will affect your batter. For this recipe I used creamy “Skippy” peanut butter.
4. Fill your batter 3/4 of the way into the pan so that it doesn’t overflow too much as you bake!

🧺 Storage tips

• Room Temperature: Store at room temperature wrapped in an an airtight container for up to 3 days.
• Fridge: Cool cookies completely and store them in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
