Ingredients

• 6 very ripe bananas, mashed
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1/4 cup honey
• 1/4 cup spiced rum
• 1/4 cup cognac
• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 1/2 cups white sugar
• 2/3 cup brown sugar
• 2 eggs, lightly beaten
• 10 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 3 tablespoons butter
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Directions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease two twelve-cup muffin tins.

In a mixing bowl, mix bananas, 1/2 cup brown sugar, honey, rum, and cognac with an electric mixer until smooth.

In a large bowl, whisk together 3 cups flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. In another bowl, cream white sugar, 2/3 cup brown sugar, eggs, and melted butter. Pour banana mixture and creamed egg mixture into the flour, and stir until just combined. Spoon mixture into muffin tins, filling cups 3/4 full.

In a small bowl, mix together 1 cup brown sugar, 3 tablespoons flour, and cinnamon. Cut in 3 tablespoons butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle over batter in muffin tins.

Bake muffins in preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until done.
