Ingredients

Streusel Topping:

  • 1 cup buckwheat flakes

  • ½ cup packed brown sugar

  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Muffins:

  • ¾ cup buckwheat flour

  • ¾ cup gluten-free all-purpose baking flour

  • ½ cup rice flour

  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

  • ¾ cup packed brown sugar

  • 1 stick unsalted butter, softened

  • 3 large eggs

  • 2 large ripe bananas, cut into chunks

  • ½ cup chopped walnuts

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line cups with paper liners.

  2. Mix together buckwheat flakes, brown sugar, butter, and vanilla extract in a bowl for the streusel topping; set aside.

  3. Combine buckwheat, gluten-free, and rice flours in a bowl with baking powder.

  4. Combine butter and 3/4 cup brown sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment; beat until smooth and creamy. Beat in eggs, one at a time. Add bananas and mix until just combined and slightly chunky. Add flour mixture, a little at a time, until fully incorporated. Fold in walnuts.

  5. Spoon about 1/4 cup of batter into each prepared muffin cup, filling each about half-way full. Top with streusel topping.

  6. Bake in the preheated oven until tops spring back when lightly pressed, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
