Banana Nut Muffins W/ Oatmeal Streusel

Ingredients

  Muffins:

• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (about 6 3/4 ounces)
• 1/2 cup whole wheat flour (about 2 1/2 ounces)
• 2/3 cup packed brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup mashed ripe banana (about 2 bananas)
• 3/4 cup 1% low-fat milk
• 3 tablespoons canola oil
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 large egg
• 1/4 cup chopped walnuts, toasted

Streusel:

• 6 tablespoons regular oats
• 5 tablespoons all-purpose flour (about 1 1/2 ounces) (I used 3 tablespoons)
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons butter, softened
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Preparation

Preheat oven to 375°.
To prepare the muffins, lightly spoon 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour and whole wheat flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Combine flours and next 4 ingredients (through salt) in a large bowl; make a well in center of mixture. Combine banana and next 4 ingredients (through egg) in a bowl; stir well. Add to flour mixture. Stir just until moistened; fold in walnuts. Place 12 muffin cup liners in muffin cups. Spoon batter into 12 muffin cups.
To prepare streusel, combine oats and remaining ingredients in a small bowl. Blend with a pastry blender or 2 knives until mixture resembles coarse meal. Sprinkle streusel over batter. Bake at 375° for 22 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean.
