WHOLE WHEAT BANANA MUFFINS (HEALTHY!)
These muffins are a healthy option because of the wheat flour and flax seed. The sugar could probably be reduced further, if desired, but I haven't tried to do that yet. If you don't want to use the wheat flour, just use 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour. I add some quick oats to the topping, for presentation. Also good in a mini-muffin pan!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Grease muffin pan or use muffin papers.
- Mix up the flours, flax, baking soda, baking powder, salt and cinnamon in a large bowl.
- In a smaller bowl, mash bananas. Add sugar, egg and melted butter to bananas.
- Add banana mixture to flour mixture and stir.
- Divide mixture evenly into muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
- Prepare streusel topping. Sprinkle onto tops of muffins and lightly press struesel into batter (so it will stay in place as muffin rises).

Tips:
- Use ripe bananas for a sweeter, more flavorful muffin.
- If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
- Be careful not to overmix the batter, as this will make the muffins tough.
- Fill the muffin cups only ⅔ full, as the muffins will rise during baking.
- Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Store the muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze them for up to 2 months.
