Big, fluffy, moist, tender Raspberry Banana Streusel Muffins loaded with raspberries and topped with a sweet, crunch almond streusel topping.
My adults boys are still living at home and with their busy college and work schedules, it’s rare that we get to eat breakfast together. I miss being together for breakfast, so I initiated mandatory Sunday breakfast.
My family is crazy about my Blueberry Streusel Muffins and they were on the menu last Sunday. However, when I got up Sunday morning there was one lonely banana sitting on the counter that was past it’s prime.
So I decided to change up the muffin recipe and add a banana. There were also some raspberries in the fridge that needed to be used up. So I turned my blueberry muffins into raspberry banana muffins.
When I’m making muffins I always use a scoop. It’s less messy and all the muffins bake up the same size. A #16 scoop is the perfect size for muffins. I’m also in love with the If You Care Muffin Papers. They peel away from the muffins easily and you don’t lose any muffin on the paper.
My boys loved these Raspberry Banana Streusel Muffins. They were definitely worth waking up for. I’m sure your family will love them too.

Would this recipe work with bananas that have been frozen? I have a bunch in the freezer!

Hi. I made these muffins last night and that are bursting with raspberry flavor whichI love!! How long can I store them on the counter?
Barbara Schieving
Hi Erica – You can store them on the counter in a Ziploc bag, the topping does get a little soft the next day but they’re still delicious. Often I’ll freeze them if it’s going to be more than 1 day.

Those are some perfectly beautiful-and I know delicious, muffins, Barbara. I’m glad to hear I’m not the only one who finds that one lonely over ripe banana sitting on the counter that needs to be used in something. I just had that happen to me over the weekend! 🙂
Barbara Schieving
Thanks Carol! Just our frugal sides coming out 🙂

They muffins would be wonderful, if you wouldn’t use so much Sugar. A 1/2 C Sugar makes them test just as sweet and you save all those Calories
Thanks Renee

Hi Renee – definitely change them up to suit your tastes. Enjoy!
