BANANA CRUMBLE

Steps:

• Prepare the banana filling by heating butter in a nonstick saucepan over medium heat.
• Add brown sugar, cinnamon powder and mix until sugar dissolves completely.
• Add apple juice, vanilla extract and cook for 1-2 minutes or until mixture thickens a bit.
• Remove from heat and pour this sugar mixture in an oven-safe rectangle baking dish (Dimensions: 7x11 or 8x12).
• Add banana chunks and mix them gently so they are coated in the sugar mixture.
• Spread them out evenly in the dish. Keep aside.
• Prepare the topping by mixing together oats, flour, brown sugar, butter, cinnamon powder, vanilla extract in a large bowl. Use a pastry cutter or a large fork to cut the butter into the flour/oat mixture until you have a crumbly mixture. Do not add milk or water to thin it out.
• Stir in chopped pecans.
• Spread this mixture on top of the banana filling evenly.
• Bake at 350 degrees F for 20-25 minutes or until topping is golden brown.
• Remove from oven and let it cool for about 15 minutes.
• Then, serve with whipped cream.

VEGAN BANANA CRUMB MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 C) and lightly grease a standard size muffin tin (will make 10-11 muffins as original recipe is written // adjust if altering batch size)
• Prepare flax eggs by mixing flaxseed meal and water in a large mixing bowl. Let set for 5 minutes.
• To the flax egg, add banana and mash, leaving just a bit of texture.
• Add brown sugar, baking soda, salt and whisk for one minute.
• Stir in vanilla, melted butter and mix.
• Add flour and oats and stir with a spoon or spatula until just combined. Lastly, fold in walnuts (optional).
• Divide batter evenly among 10-11 muffin tins (adjust if altering batch size), filling a generous 3/4 full (I fill mine practically full for aesthetic effect).
• Quickly wipe your mixing bowl and add crumble ingredients. Prepare crumble top by mashing ingredients together with a fork until crumbly like wet sand. Generously top muffins with streusel. You may have leftovers (reserve for future muffins or add to crumbles, pies, quick breads, etc.).
• Bake for 17-22 minutes or until tops are golden brown and a toothpick or knife comes out clean. Let cool for a few minutes, remove from muffin tin and serve warm. Once completely cooled, store in a covered container at room temp for several days. Freeze for longer term storage.
