My family has been on a banana kick lately so there haven't been too many over-ripe bananas in the basket on my counter recently.

No over ripe bananas means no banana bread or banana muffins either.  (Insert sad face because I don't know how to use emogis on this computer.)


This week I tried to outsmart them and I bought way too many bananas than we could possibly eat before they over ripened.  By the end of the week, I finally had a few leftovers for banana muffins.  (Yea)  I had been itching to try a new recipe that I had found on www.the-girl-who-ate-everything.com and these bananas were the perfect opportunity to try out a new recipe.

I decided to make my muffins into minis because I hadn't made any mini muffins in a while.  (Pretty scientific, right?)  Much to my delight, these muffins came out moist and cinnamony and delicious.  The crunchy streusel topping just puts these muffins over the top.
