Oh, WOW, this is a great recipe. I made it yesterday, and I love it!

1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 large ripe bananas, mashed
3/4 cup sugar
1 egg, lightly beaten
1/3 cup butter, melted
3/4 cup pecans or walnuts, optional

Topping
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
1 tablespoon butter

In a large bowl, combine dry ingredients (flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt).

Combine bananas, sugar, egg, and butter. Mix well. Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened.

Stir in nuts.

Fill greased or paper-lined muffin cups 3/4 full.

For the topping, combine brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon. Cut in butter until crumbly. Sprinkle over muffins.

Bake at 375 degrees for 18 – 20 minutes or until muffins test done.

Cool in pan for 10 minutes before removing to a wire rack.

Yield: 12 muffins
