Banana Crumb Mufins

You would think I would clue in after awhile that my family is sick of bananas. I had a whole counter full last night and was sick of staring at ugly black bananas hence all the banana recipes today. I have made these previously and really like them. They are just like banana bread in muffin form with a delicious brown sugar crumb topping. I took the advice of other reviewers and added some vanilla, nutmeg and cinnamon to give them a little pick me up.
