Ingredients
- 3 medium overripe bananas
- 100ml natural yogurt
- 175g light muscovado sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 150g unsalted butter, melted
- 225g self-raising flour
- 120g Carnation Caramel (from a tin)
For the crumble topping:
- 50g plain flour
- 25g caster sugar
- 25g cold unsalted butter
- 15g rolled oats
Step by step
Get ahead
The baked muffins will keep for up to a couple of days in an airtight container and can also be frozen (add the caramel filling once defrosted).
-
To make the topping, mix the flour and sugar in a medium bowl, add the butter and rub together until the mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs. Add the oats and stir to combine. Cover and chill until needed.
- Preheat the oven to 180°C, fan 160°C, gas 4. Line a 12-hole muffin tin with paper cases, set aside. Mash the bananas in a large bowl with a fork until no large lumps remain, add the yogurt, sugar, eggs, vanilla and melted butter; mix together until smooth. Sift in the flour and ½ teaspoon of salt; mix well.
- Divide the mixture equally between the prepared muffin cases, then remove the crumble from the fridge and sprinkle on top.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the muffins comes out clean. Set aside to cool. Once the muffins have cooled, use a teaspoon to dollop a small amount of Carnation Caramel on each one.
