Description
These Banana Blueberry Muffins combine all of the delicious flavors of banana bread with ripe, juicy blueberries. They are topped with a brown sugar cinnamon crumble, which adds a hint of sweetness and texture to the muffins. These muffins are made with Greek yogurt for added nutrition and protein, and have the addition of natural sweetness from the ripe bananas. These muffins are moist, tender and have an incredibly fluffy crumb.

Notes
- To make your own muffin liners: cut out 12 squares of parchment paper, measuring 5 inches x 5 inches. Place a cup upside down on the counter. Place one square of parchment paper on top of the cup and use your hands to push the sides of the parchment paper down. This will help shape the parchment paper to fit into the muffin tin. Place the liner in the muffin tin. It may not stay down completely, but once you add the muffin batter, it will stay down in the muffin tin.
- Where to find fancy parchment paper for muffin liners: I get my parchment paper on Amazon. You can type “newspaper printed parchment paper” into the search box, and you should find a bunch of different options to choose from.
