Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup Oil
  • 1/2 cup Brown Sugar
  • 1/2 cup Sugar
  • 4 Bananas
  • 2 Eggs
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
  • 1 1/2 cups Flour
  • 1 cup Oats

Streusel Topping:

  • 4 tablespoons Butter melted
  • 2/3 cup Flour
  • 2/3 cup Oats
  • 1/3 cup Brown Sugar
  • 1/4 cup Walnuts chopped
  • 2 teaspoons Cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl, add in oil, brown sugar, and sugar. Stir everything together.
    1/2 cup Oil, 1/2 cup Brown Sugar, 1/2 cup Sugar
  • Add in eggs and vanilla. Mix together.
    2 Eggs, 1 teaspoon Vanilla
  • On a plate, sprinkle the cinnamon over the bananas and mash them up to a chunky* paste.
    4 Bananas, 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
  • Add banana mixture to the wet ingredients and stir together.
  • To the wet ingredients, add in flour, oats, baking soda, and baking powder. Stir everything together.
    1 teaspoon Baking Powder, 1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda, 1 1/2 cups Flour, 1 cup Oats
  • To get the most rise in your muffins, cover and refridgerate for an hour.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • While the oven is preheating, make the streusel topping.
  • Melt butter in a microwave-safe bowl in 30 second increments until it's mostly melted. There will still be some small chunks of butter and that's okay!
    4 tablespoons Butter
  • Then mix in flour, oats, brown sugar, chopped walnuts, cinnamon, and salt.
    2/3 cup Flour, 2/3 cup Oats, 1/3 cup Brown Sugar, 1/4 cup Walnuts, 2 teaspoons Cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon Salt
  • Set streusel aside. Fill up muffin tins using a large cookie scoop. Then top with some streusel.
  • Bake at 400 for 5 minutes, then reduce the heat to 350 and bake for another 15 minutes.
  • Let cool slightly, then serve and enjoy!

Notes

* I like to leave the bananas with some chunks in the mixture because I think it gives the muffins a better texture, but this is up to you! You can also mash them up to a thin consistency if you'd like!
