Banana Crumb Muffins

Banana Crumb Muffins
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 bananas, mashed
3/4 cup sugar
1 egg, lightly beaten
1/3 cup butter, melted
Crumb topping:
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon butter
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
Directions:Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Place 15 muffin liners in muffin cups.
In a large bowl, mix together flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt. In another bowl, beat together bananas, sugar, egg and melted butter. Stir the banana mixture into the flour mixture just until moistened. Spoon batter into prepared muffin cups.
In a small bowl, mix together brown sugar, 2 tablespoons flour and cinnamon. Cut in 1 tablespoon butter until mixture resembles coarse cornmeal. Sprinkle topping over muffins.
Bake in preheated oven for 18 to 20 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into center of a muffin comes out clean.

I am falling more and more in love with Six Sisters' Stuff. Especially since Sean and I started counting calories. They include the nutrition information on just about every recipe. Makes it so much easier for us to make sure we're eating good. And everything is easy and good. Awesome.
Anyway, these muffins are delicious. This recipe didn't include any nutrition information but I figured it out on my own. These have 124 calories and 9 g fat per muffin. Awesomer!!! I don't have a tool to "cut butter" so I just used a fork and it was alright. By the way, I think you're supposed to use cold butter for the crumb topping. And my muffins took a little longer to bake; about 23 minutes. The toothpick came out clean after 20 minutes but when I took a bite there was still some uncooked batter at the bottom.
