Make the Banana Walnut Muffin BatterIn a mixing bowl (or you could also just use a food processor on low - I did and it worked great), firstly, chop the walnuts if they are whole. Then add and blend the bananas. Mix in the eggs, buttermilk, vanilla, sugar, and salt. Add baking power and mix it in, then add the flour gradually. Mix in the butter. |

Assemble the Banana Walnut MuffinsLine your cupcake sheet or muffin pan, or coat with cooking spray or butter. Add the batter. Generously cover each banana walnut muffin with the Streusel crumble topping. Bake on the bottom rack for approx. 22-26 minutes. For jumbo muffin pans, you'll need anywhere from 30-40 minutes. Do the toothpick test or just use your finger - if they spring back - they are ready to eat. |
