I hate to throw away a banana just because it’s too ripe. When I have several I always throw them in the mixer and whip up a batch of my moist banana muffins with a streusel topping.

The streusel crumble oat topping is crunchy and sweet. It’s the perfect addition to a plain banana muffin.

 I’ve got one kid that loves chocolate chips and the other, not so much.

So I usually make half the batch with chocolate chips and the other half without.

These moist banana muffins would be just as delicious with chopped nuts instead of chocolate.

They make a great after school snack or even a quick breakfast for those mornings when you’re rushing to get out the door.

Bananas are so healthy for you, loaded with potassium and vitamin C, and a great choice if you’re looking for a nutrient dense power food.

These muffins pack all that goodness in each morsel. I promise they will give you just the right amount of energy to keep you going.

So next time you are thinking about tossing those too-ripe bananas, think again.

  • yep, over ripe bananas are made into bread or a smoothie – when eating a banana as is, I actually prefer the under ripe banana – totally different flavor! these muffins look perfect!

    • me too. I prefer my banana with no spots at all to eat out of the skin but the overripe ones are perfect for a sweet muffin. Thanks Kristina.

  • Banana plus streusel all in a muffin?? Total win! My daughter loves banana everything and she’s headed to a dance competition this weekend. I see these as a nice in between dance snack. Only problem is, if I make it for her I have to make two batches to feed her friends too!

  • I always have extra bananas on hand so this comes at the perfect time! I bought two bunches last week and let’s just say they are becoming super ripe! Love the streusel on top 🙂

  • I so dig bananas and I still but way more than I can eat before they go bad. Maybe I am doing it accidentally on purpose so I can have some over ripe ones to make recipes like this one!

  • My kids would love these! I’m convinced that all muffins must have streusel topping as well. And, I love the idea of using our ripe bananas for more than just our go-to banana bread. Thanks for the recipe!
