Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a muffin pan by lining it with paper liners.
  2. In a medium bowl, melt unsalted butter and mix it with brown sugar and ground cinnamon. Gradually fold in all-purpose flour.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, mash three overripe bananas and mix in granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, salt, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract.
  4. Gently fold in baking soda and flour to create a slightly lumpy batter.
  5. Fill each muffin cup two-thirds full with the batter and top with the crumb topping.
  6. Bake for 15-16 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick.
  7. Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  8. Prepare the glaze by mixing powdered sugar, cream, and vanilla extract in a small bowl.
  9. Drizzle the glaze over each cooled muffin.
