The riper the better. When a recipe calls for bananas, it’s best to go with super ripe bananas. Bananas tend to be sweeter the riper they are, so opt for the squishy banana with brown spots when baking. The consistency also makes it a whole lot simpler when it comes to mashing the banana for this recipe.

Use your hands to combine the crumble-top ingredients. You’re working with cold butter for this part of the recipe, when mixing cold butter it’s sometimes easier to get your hands involved. Use your fingers to squish the ingredients together. The goal is to have the butter coating the pecans/sugar without there being big clumps of butter left behind. This shouldn’t take too long when using your hands for this step.

How to store

After cooling muffins completely, store them in an airtight container, lined with a paper towel. You can then store them on the kitchen bench, away from sunlight for up to 4 days.

You can store the muffin batter in the freezer for a couple of weeks. To make it easier on yourself, spoon muffin batter into the paper pans before freezing. This way you can take them straight from the freezer, place them in a muffin tray, and bake – without having to spoon or thaw anything. Simply add 5 minutes to the total baking time to allow the batter to melt in the oven.
