The softest and yummiest sourdough banana muffins you’ve ever tasted. A light and fluffy banana muffin, topped with a crunchy and sweet oat crumble.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup melted unsalted butter
  • 1 cup dark brown sugar
  • 3 ripe bananas (350g)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup sourdough starter discard*
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup oats
  • 2 tablespoons flour
  • 4 tablespoons softened unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

  2. 2

    Melt butter in a microwave safe dish, in a saucepan, or small cast iron pan.

  3. 3

    Lightly grease a muffin tin or line with cupcake liners.

  4. 4

    In a stand mixer with a paddle attachment or a bowl, mix together melted butter and brown sugar for five minutes.

  5. 5

    Turn off the mixer and add in eggs, vanilla, mashed banana, and sourdough starter.

  6. 6

    In a separate bowl, stir together dry ingredients (flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt) well.

  7. 7

    Add in dry ingredients 1/3 at a time and mix until just incorporated. You don’t want to over-mix.

  8. 8

    Add equal amounts of batter to each muffin well. I like to use an ice cream scoop for this.

  9. 9

    Top each muffin with the oat crumble.

  10. 10

    Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick or cake tester comes out clean.
