Apple Streusel Muffins

These are the best. I didn't have any apples when I made it so I substituted them with bananas. If you want to make them with bananas, mush them until they are pastey.

Ingredients: Muffins

~ 350mL flour

~ 125mL sugar

~ 10mL baking powder

~ 2mL salt

~ 2mL. cinnamon

~ 125mL milk
