Apple Cinnamon Crumble Banana Bread Muffins

I'm always experimenting with different variations of banana bread. It's a slight obsession. I actually buy bananas just to let them get brown. I love how moist and flavorful my banana bread always turns out. And I just happened to have some apples that needed to be used up. So, I give you this recipe for apple cinnamon banana bread muffins with a delicious cinnamon sugar crumble. This may be my favorite banana bread recipe yet! So delicious and perfect for fall! 

Apple Cinnamon Crumble Banana Bread Muffins

Ingredients:
4 ripe medium bananas, mashed
1/3 cup butter, melted
3/4 cup white sugar
1 egg, beaten
1 tsp. vanilla
1 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
2 small or 1 large apple, peeled, cored and chopped 
2 tsp. cinnamon

For crumble topping:
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
4 tbsp. butter, melted
1/2 tsp. cinnamon 
1/4 tsp. salt

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350. 
2. In large mixing bowl, combine bananas, butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla. Stir until well combined. Sprinkle baking soda and salt over mixture. Slowly stir in flour, making sure not to over mix. Fold in apples and cinnamon. 
3. In separate bowl, combine all ingredients for crumble topping. Squish with hands until well combined and crumbly. 
4. Pour batter evenly in to greased muffin pan. (Makes about 14 muffins.) Fill each cup about 2/3 of the way full with batter. Sprinkle crumble topping evenly on top of batter.
