Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). ๐ก๐ฅ
Step 2: Prepare the Streusel Topping
In a medium bowl, combine 1/2 cup sugar, 1/3 cup all-purpose flour, and 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Using a pastry blender or fork, cut in the 1/4 cup of butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Set aside. ๐๐
Step 3: Mix the Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, combine 3 cups all-purpose flour, 3/4 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 2 cups sugar, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Stir in 1 cup chopped pecans and 1 cup chopped walnuts until evenly distributed. ๐ฅฃ๐ฐ
Step 4: Combine the Wet Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 large eggs, 1 cup vegetable oil, 2 cups mashed ripe bananas, 1 cup drained crushed pineapple, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until well blended. ๐๐
Step 5: Mix the Batter
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring just until the dry ingredients are moistened. Be careful not to overmix to ensure tender muffins. ๐ฅโจ
Step 6: Fill the Muffin Tins
Line your muffin tins with paper liners. Fill each muffin cup a little more than half full with the batter. ๐ง๐
Step 7: Add the Streusel Topping
Sprinkle the prepared streusel topping generously over each muffin. ๐ฅง๐
Step 8: Bake the Muffins
Bake in the preheated oven for about 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Your kitchen will be filled with the heavenly aroma of these tropical muffins! โฒ๏ธ๐ด
Step 9: Cool and Enjoy
Let the muffins cool in the tin for about 10 minutes, then remove them and place them on wire racks to finish cooling. Enjoy these delightful Banana Pineapple Streusel Muffins warm or at room temperature. ๐ฌ๏ธ๐
Step 10: Optional Loaves
If you prefer to make loaves instead of muffins, divide the batter between two medium-sized loaf pans. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for about 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. ๐๐ช
