Ingredients

Scale

Muffin Batter

  • 3 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 2 cups King Arthur all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup plant-based butter, softened
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (natural)
  • 3/4 cup plant-based milk

Crumb Topping

  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup King Arthur all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup plant-based butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon natural gelling agent

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it. Mash the ripe bananas thoroughly and measure all remaining ingredients to streamline your preparation.
  2. Mix the Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the King Arthur all-purpose flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt until evenly combined. This ensures your muffins rise evenly and maintain consistent flavor throughout.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix the mashed bananas, plant-based milk, softened plant-based butter, brown sugar, vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural), and vanilla extract (natural) thoroughly to form a rich, moist base.
  4. Bring Batter Together: Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture just until combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the muffins tender and fluffy.
  5. Create the Crumb Topping: In a smaller bowl, combine brown sugar, King Arthur all-purpose flour, melted plant-based butter, cinnamon, and natural gelling agent. Mix until the topping is crumbly and coarse for that signature crunch.
  6. Assemble and Bake: Spoon the batter into prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full. Generously sprinkle crumb topping over each muffin. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  7. Cool and Enjoy: Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Enjoy them warm or at room temperature to fully appreciate the moist crumb and crunchy topping.

Notes

  • Use very ripe bananas for maximum sweetness and flavor.
  • Mix the batter just until the dry ingredients disappear to ensure light and fluffy muffins.
  • Use your fingers to gently crumble the topping for an even texture.
  • Check doneness by inserting a toothpick; it should come out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  • Ensure plant-based butter and milk are at room temperature for better mixing.
