Banana Macadamia Nut Muffins
Preheat oven to 375ºF and grease or line a 12-cup muffin pan. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate mixing bowl or measuring cup, whisk together the brown sugar, mashed bananas, egg, vanilla, and melted butter. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix together with a wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful to not over-mix. Add the chopped macadamia nuts and gently fold them into the batter.
Prepare the streusel topping: In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the brown sugar and flour until combined and no lumps remain. Cut in the cubed butter with your fingers or a fork until the mixture forms large crumbs. Stir in the oats and chopped macadamia nuts.
Spoon the muffin batter into the muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full. Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over all the muffins. Bake in the preheated oven until the top of the muffins are puffed and golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Cool muffins in the pan for about 10 minutes before removing. Serve warm with butter and/or guava jam.
